An optimizing method of OFDM radar communication and jamming shared waveform based on improved greedy algorithm

Abstract

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been widely used as radar, communication, and jamming shared waveform. To improve the power utilization and efficiency of radar, communication, and jamming integrated system, we propose an adaptive OFDM shared waveform design method. Considering the problem of jamming path propagation loss and sensitivity of frequency response error of radar and communication channels, we propose a robust OFDM shared waveform design method. Firstly, the suppressed jamming entropy model, the detection probability (Pd) of the stationary point target model, the data information rate (DIR) model with a given bit error rate (BER) are formulated. With the constraints on total power and BER, the adaptive and the robust OFDM optimization problems are formulated. Then we derive the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions of the two optimization problems and an improved greedy algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problems, and the optimal power and bit allocation schemes for the two problems are obtained. Finally, we present several numerical results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
