Robust Waveform and Filter Bank Design of Polarimetric Radar

What is it about?

We focus on the robust joint design of the transmit waveform and filtering structure for polarimetric radar. Considering the worst case signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) at the output as the figure of merit to optimize under both a similarity and an energy constraint on the transmit signal, we develop an iterative optimization procedure. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through experimental results, underlining the performance improvement given by a full-polarimetric design.
