Title
Closed-Form Solution To Directly Design Face Waveforms For Beampatterns Using Planar Array
Abstract
In multiple-input multiple-output radar systems, it is usually desirable to steer transmitted power in the region-of-interest. To do this, conventional methods optimize the waveform co-variance matrix, R, for the desired beampattern, which is then used to generate actual transmitted waveforms. In this paper, we provide a low complexity closed-form solution to design covariance matrix for the given planar beampattern using the planar array, which is then used to derive a novel closed-form algorithm to directly design the finite-alphabet constant-envelope waveforms. The proposed algorithm exploits the two-dimensional fast-Fourier-transform. The performance of our proposed algorithm is compared with the existing methods that are based on semi-definite quadratic programming with the advantage of a considerably reduced complexity.
