Abstract
Abstract Focusing on the signal to interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) maximization in colocated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars, using the transmit covariance matrix (TCM) design of transmit waveforms, we have proposed a TCM Rpm with the form of symmetrical Toeplitz matrix, where m is the control parameter to generate different TCM. The main features include (a) full rank, to exploit the waveform diversity advantage of MIMO radar and to further suppress the maximum number of interfering sources, (b) positive semi-definition of sin ((π/2)Rpm) to guarantee that Rpm can be synthesized with binary phase shift keying (BPSK) waveforms in closed form, (c) higher output SINR level using the Rpm with smaller m in the receiver, with the prior knowledge of target and interference locations, (d) lower receive sidelobe levels (SLLs) using the Rpm with certain larger m (e.g. m = 1.5 or 2) for the unwanted and unknown sidelobe interference suppression. Simulation results validate the better performance of our proposed TCM compared to the phased-array, omnidirectional MIMO radar, phased-MIMO radar and the recently proposed TCMs.
