Abstract:
In this paper, the problem of low probability of intercept (LPI)-based radar waveform design for distributed multiple-radar system (DMRS) is studied, which consists of multiple radars coexisting with a wireless communication system in the same frequency band. The primary objective of the multiple-radar system is to minimize the total transmitted energy by optimizing the transmission waveform of each radar with the communication signals acting as interference to the radar system, while meeting a desired target detection/characterization performance. Firstly, signal-to-clutter-plus-noise ratio (SCNR) and mutual information (MI) are used as the practical metrics to evaluate target detection and characterization performance, respectively. Then, the SCNR- and MI-based optimal radar waveform optimization methods are formulated. The resulting waveform optimization problems are solved through the well-known bisection search technique. Simulation results demonstrate utilizing various examples and scenarios that the proposed radar waveform design schemes can evidently improve the LPI performance of DMRS without interfering with friendly communications.

Interference: Path Lengths
Two special sources may be considered when they are in phase. This can be easily achieved by feeding the two sources from the same source. An example would be synchronizing the two speakers by feeding them with the same source, such as the sound waves produced by a tuning fork. This setup ensures that the two sources have the same frequency and are...
