Abstract
Assuming unknown target Doppler shift, we focus on robust joint design of the transmit radar waveform and receive Doppler filter bank in the presence of signal-dependent interference. We consider the worst case signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) at the output of the filter bank as the figure of merit to optimize under both a similarity and an energy constraint on the transmit signal. Based on a suitable reformulation of the original non-convex max-min optimization problem, we develop an optimization procedure which monotonically improves the worst-case SINR and converges to a stationary point. Each iteration of the algorithm, involves both a convex and a generalized fractional programming problem which can be globally solved via the generalized Dinkelbach’s procedure with a polynomial computational complexity. Finally, at the analysis stage, we assess the performance of the new technique versus some counterparts which are available in open literature.
