SINR Enhancement in Colocated MIMO Radar Using Transmit Covariance Matrix Optimization

摘要

In this letter, we focus on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) enhancement using transmitting waveform covariance matrix optimization in colocated MIMO radars. In our proposed algorithm, transmitted waveform covariance matrix has been optimized to focus the transmit beampattern into the target direction and in the receiver, we try to reject maximum number of interfering objects. In the proposed algorithm, transmitted waveform covariance matrix is able to be synthesized with binary phase shift keying waveforms in closed form. Simulation results show that our proposed method has better SINR performance in comparison with methods in which transmitted covariance matrix is designed independently from the interferences locations.
