Joint Design of Complementary Sequence and Receiving Filter with High Doppler Tolerance for Simultaneously Polarimetric Radar
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- (1)
- Based on the AF, the joint design of unimodular orthogonal CCS (UOCCS) and receiving filter is proposed for SPR waveforms. Specifically, the complementary integrated sidelobe level (CISL) of Auto-AFs, the complementary integrated isolation level (CIIL) of Cross-AFs, and the mismatch constraint with controllable SNR loss are all considered simultaneously in the objective function formulated for optimization. By setting the predefined SNR loss, a trade-off between the suppression of CISL/CIIL and actual SNR loss can be achieved. In other words, the work in [41,42] was extended, i.e., the proposed scheme not only considers the low sidelobe of the pulse compression of CCS but also takes into account the orthogonality for all time delays within appropriate DFR.
- (2)
- The joint design problem is decomposed into subproblems of waveform design and receiving filter design via theoretical derivation, which is solved via an alternatively iterative approach. Concretely, the two subproblems are transformed into nonconvex quadratic terms containing the Hermitian matrix. The MM method is then applied to transforming these two nonconvex quadratic terms into linear programming problems with closed solutions. By utilizing the characteristics of Toeplitz matrix-vector multiplication, the main computation step can be completed via FFT. For further improvement, the convergence speed of the algorithm, an acceleration scheme of the squared iterative method (SQUAREM) is introduced. Compared with the representative and latest MM-CCS method [34] and the L-BFGS algorithm [35], better performance is achieved by the proposed algorithm, benefiting from both the joint design and the application of the MM framework.
