This letter deals with the robust joint design of radar transmit waveform and receive filter bank in a background of range unambiguous signal-dependent clutter. Assuming an unknown Doppler shift for the target, the worst-case Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise-Ratio (SINR) at the output of the receive filter bank is considered as the figure of merit. The transceiver design is pursued considering a max-min optimization problem with some constraints on the transmit energy, similarity, and signal dynamic range. Hidden convexity is shown and a procedure to derive optimal waveform and filters is given. Simulation results highlight the effectiveness of the devised method.

距离模糊杂波下鲁棒波形中的隐藏凸度和接收滤波器组优化

这封信涉及在距离明确的信号相关杂波背景下雷达发射波形和接收滤波器组的稳健联合设计。假设目标的多普勒频移未知，接收滤波器组输出端的最坏情况信号干扰加噪声比 (SINR) 被视为品质因数。收发器设计考虑了最大-最小优化问题，对发射能量、相似性和信号动态范围有一些限制。显示了隐藏的凸性，并给出了导出最佳波形和滤波器的程序。仿真结果突出了所设计方法的有效性。
