The Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) radar waveform diversity Significantly improves parameter identifiably than phased-array radar performance. Precoding, combining and spatial multiplexing techniques improves the data throughput and reliability of the transmission in MIMO systems. But increment in transmit and receive elements in MIMO antenna array induces considerable increase in required power for hardware and computation cost. Hybrid beamforming employs fewer RF-to-baseband chains. With conscious selection of the weights for pre-coding and combining, hybrid beamforming establishes perfect trade-off between complexity, performance, cost, and power consumption in practical applications. Performance of MIMO radar system can be improved using newly developed bio inspired metaheuristic algorithms as compared to conventional and adaptive beamforming algorithms. In this work the Salp Swarm algorithm (SSA) is implemented to optimize the performance of hybrid beamforming using Raleigh channel and considering the bit error rate and normalized array power parameters. The swarming behavior of salps when navigating and foraging in oceans is the inspiration behind the SSA optimization algorithm. The obtained results are compared with the conventional phase-shift as well as adaptive linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming algorithms on simulation platform with standard considerations. It is observed that this new approach of Salp swarm algorithm is having improved and much better performance with the considered parameters.

: Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have been endorsed to enable future wireless communication requirements. The efficient system designing appeals an appropriate channel model, that considers all the dominating effects of wireless environment. Therefore, some complex or less analytically acquiescent composite channel models have been proposed typically for single-input single-output (SISO) systems. These models are explicitly employed for mobile applications, though, we need a specific study of a model for MIMO system which can deal with radar clutters and different indoor/outdoor and mobile communication environments. Subsequently, the performance enhancement of MIMO system is also required in such scenario. The system performance enhancement can be examined by low error rate and high capacity using spatial diversity and spatial multiplexing respectively. Furthermore, for a more feasible and practical system modeling, we require a generalized noise model along with a composite channel model. Thus, all the patents related to MIMO channel models are revised to achieve the near optimal system performance in real world scenario. This review paper offers the methods to improve MIMO system performance in less and severe fading as well as shadowing environment and focused on a composite Weibull-gamma fading model. The development is the collective effects of selecting the appropriate channel models, spatial multiplexing/detection and spatial diversity techniques both at the transmitter and the receivers in the presence of arbitrary noise.

Salp swarm algorithm (SSA) is a meta-heuristic algorithm proposed in recent years, which shows certain advantages in solving some optimization tasks. However, with the increasing difficulty of solving the problem (e.g. multi-modal, high-dimensional), the convergence accuracy and stability of SSA algorithm decrease. In order to overcome the drawbacks, salp swarm algorithm with crossover scheme and Lévy flight (SSACL) is proposed. The crossover scheme and Lévy flight strategy are used to improve the movement patterns of salp leader and followers, respectively. Experiments have been conducted on various test functions, including unimodal, multimodal, and composite functions. The experimental results indicate that the proposed SSACL algorithm outperforms other advanced algorithms in terms of precision, stability, and efficiency. Furthermore, the Wilcoxon’s rank sum test illustrates the advantages of proposed method in a statistical and meaningful way.
