We propose a waveform that includes Linear frequency modulation and non linear frequency modulation wave applicable for MIMO radar. The wave form consists of three segments where the boundary segment consists of LFM content and the middle segment consists of NLFM. The time frequency component in the middle segment is controlled. The range and Doppler side lobe suppression is improved. The genetic algorithm is implemented to suppress the side lobes in the auto correlation and cross correlation functions. The performance is analysed by using ambiguity function.

Radar waveforms based on chaotic systems have occasionally been suggested for a variety of radar applications. In this paper, radar waveforms are constructed with solutions from a particular chaotic system, the Lorenz system, and are called Lorenz waveforms. Waveform properties, which include the peak autocorrelation function side-lobe and the transmit power level, are related to the system parameters of the Lorenz system. Additionally, scaling the system parameters is shown to correspond to an approximate time and amplitude scaling of Lorenz waveforms and also corresponds to scaling the waveform bandwidth. The Lorenz waveforms can be generated with arbitrary time lengths and bandwidths and each waveform can be represented with only a few system parameters. Furthermore, these waveforms can then be systematically improved to yield constant-envelope output waveforms with low autocorrelation function sidelobes and limited spectral leakage.

In this paper, a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) radar system based on a sparse-array is proposed. In order to reduce the side-lobe level, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the array arrangement. To reduce the complexity of the system, time-division multiplexing (TDM) technology is adopted. Since the signals are received in different periods, a frequency migration will emerge if the target is in motion, which will lead to the lower direction-of-arrival (DOA) performance of the system. To solve this problem, a stretching transformation method in the fast-frequency slow-time domain is proposed, in order to eliminate frequency migration. Only minor adjustments need to be implemented for the signal processing, and the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of the DOA estimation will be reduced by about 90%, compared with the one of an uncalibrated system. For example, a uniform linear array (ULA) MIMO system with 2 transmitters and 20 receivers can be replaced by the proposed system with 2 transmitters and 12 receivers, achieving the same DOA performance. The calibration formulations are given, and the simulation results of the automotive radar system are also provided, which validate the theory.

As a new type of radar, the FDA-MIMO radar has a good improvement on side lobe suppression and target detection performance compared with the conventional MIMO radar. However, the existing researches on FDA-MIMO radar are almost based on far-field. In this paper, FDA-MIMO radar is applied to the detection of subsurface targets. Aimed at near-subsurface targets, we formulated the signal model of FDA-MIMO radar and combined it with the algorithm of grid of beam (GOB) to detect. Compared with conventional MIMO radar detection, we verified the effectiveness of the proposed method through theoretical simulation.
