Abstract
Considering tracking multiple maneuvering targets with the presence of a hostile interceptor in the modern electronic warfare (EW) environment, how to maximize targets tracking performance while ensuring system’s anti-interception capability is of essential significance for the radar network consisting of multiple colocated MIMO radar (CMR) nodes. In this paper, we propose a novel low probability of intercept (LPI) constrained collaborative beampattern optimization and resource allocation (LPI-CBORA) strategy for multiple maneuvering targets tracking (MMTT) in the CMR network (CMRN). More precisely, the LPI-CBORA strategy is formulated as a nonconvex optimization problem, where the node-target assignment, beampattern design and bandwidth allocation are collaboratively considered for the first time. To tackle the nonconvex problem effectively, an efficient two-stage solution algorithm incorporating with the successive convex approximation (SCA) and the cyclic minimization algorithm (CMA) is developed. Numerical simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed LPI-CBORA strategy.
