A waveform design method of radars with MIMO is proposed to enhance multi-target classification ability. First
a bunch of phase-coded-modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing waveforms is generated through a digital waveform generator
and the design of waveform is converted into an optimization problem. Peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR)is utilized to establish the objective function
and the constraints are the maximum of range sidelobe level and the coefficient of variation of envelope. Then
the sequential quadratic programming algorithm is adopted to solve the optimization problem so that the matched filter performance at receiver is enhanced. Simulation results show that the proposed method obtains a lower PAPR
and comparisons with the clipping and improved tone reservation methods show that the proposed method decreases the loss of range sidelobe level by 17.4% and 36.9%. Moreover
the length of a sequence and the type of an initial sequence have less effect on the performance of the proposed method.
