Title
A Fast Iterative Algorithm To Design Phase-Only Sequences By Minimizing The Isl Metric
Abstract
Unimodular/Phase-only sequence having impulse like aperiodic auto-correlation function plays a central role in the applications of RADAR, SONAR, Cryptography, and Wireless (CDMA) Communication Systems. In this paper, we propose a fast iterative algorithm to design phase-only sequences of arbitrary lengths by minimizing the Integrated Side-lobe Level (ISL) metric, which is very closely related to the auto correlation property of a sequence. The ISL minimization problem is solved iteratively by using the Majorization-Minimization (MM) technique, which ensures a monotonic convergence to the stationary minimum point. To highlight the performance of a proposed algorithm, we conduct the numerical experiments for different sequence lengths using different initializations and also compare them with the existing algorithms. Numerical simulations show that irrespective of the sequence length and initialization, the proposed algorithm is performing better than the state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of speed of convergence. We also show a computationally efficient way to implement our proposed algorithm by using the FFT and IFFT operations. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
