Abstract

Abstract

A method for the design of transmit waveform of MIMO radar based on the dynamic range constraint in weight amplitude of basic beam is proposed. Firstly, a set of the transmit waveforms is constructed which can fulfill constant-modulus constraints. Further, the control of the difference between different elemental average transmit power is converted into the optimal of the weights dynamic of basic beam. Whats more, a pattern synthesis of the basic beam with the constraint of weight amplitude dynamic range based on the sequential cone program is proposed. The optimal model can be slack as a series sub-convex optimization problem. And the second order cone program of the sub-convex and its iteration technique based on the sequential cone program is given subsequently. Lastly, the weighted coefficients of basic beam of transmit beampattern is computed via second order cone program. The efficiency and validity are verified by the simulation results．
