Abstract

This paper mainly considers the unimodular Linear-FM synthesized (LFM-Syn) waveform design for cognitive radar. To achieve its low range sidelobes and high Doppler tolerance together, a novel template-based objective function is formulated with constraint on both the quadratic phase and random phase of the waveform. In addition, a novel Alternating Projection Phase Control method (APPC) is proposed to optimize this function. Simulations show some performance of APPC over several existing techniques, and also our waveforms optimized by APPC 1) has Doppler tolerance similar to conventional LFM one and 2) has Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) similar to the random noise one, as well as 3) has low range sidelobes.
