Abstract
We study the problem of pulsed-radar transmit code design for detection of moving targets in the presence of signal-dependent clutter. For unknown target Doppler shift, the optimal detector does not lead to a closed-form expression. Therefore, we resort to average and worst case performance metrics of the optimal detector for code design. We propose several algorithms under two novel frameworks to solve highly nonconvex design problems.We also consider low peak-to-average-power ratio (PAR) code design.
