Transceiver Design in Signal-Dependent Interference and Spectrally Dense Environments

This paper deals with the joint design of transmit waveform and receive filter improving radar Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) in signal-dependent interference and spectrally contested-congested environments. The injected interference energy on each common band is precisely controlled for spectral compatibility. Besides, the transmit signal complies with constant envelop and similarity constraints to bestow some attractive waveform characteristics. To handle the resulting transceiver design problem, an iterative optimization procedure with a polynomial computational complexity is developed leveraging the Coordinate Descent (CD) framework. Finally, numerical results are provided to highlight the effectiveness of the proposed joint transmitter and receiver design technique.
