Abstract

In this article, we propose a joint strategy of power and bandwidth allocation (JSPBA) for multiple maneuvering target tracking (MMTT) in the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar with collocated antennas. The basis of our strategy is to optimally allocate the transmitted resources of power and effective bandwidth by the prior information in the closed-loop system of cognitive tracking. On account of the predicted conditional Cramér-Rao lower bound (PC-CRLB) offering a more accurate and time-sensitive lower bound than the standard posterior CRLB (PCRLB), the PC-CRLB of the range, Doppler frequency, and direction-of-arrival (DOA) is derived, normalized and adopted as the optimization criterion. Moreover, in order to solve the nonconvex problem, the initial nonconvex problem is converted into a series of convex problems, which are further formulated as the standard semi-definite programming (SDP) problems and then be solved, by introducing the convex relaxation technique and the two-step solution technique. Simulations confirm the superiority of the proposed JSPBA algorithm, in terms of the overall tracking accuracy in the MMTT scenario.
