Abstract
Three optimization problems concerning the maximization of the signal-to-interference ratio for a doubly spread target via signal design are expressed in terms of equivalent nonlinear programming problems defined on a real space by restricting the transmit and processing waveforms to be complex weighted, uniformly spaced pulse trains. Each subpulse can be different in shape and occupy the entire interpulse spacing interval. The approach taken is analogous to the Rayleigh-Ritz technique. The first two optimization problems involve maximization with respect to the complex weights, The third problem involves maximization with respect to the subpulse parameters (e.g., frequency deviation, swept bandwidth, etc.) and allows one to find optimum frequency hop codes. One need not develop algorithms to solve these problems, but rather, one can simply use standard computer programs or methods which are available for solving nonlinear programming problems.
