In this article, we develop a new waveform codesign approach for radar-communications spectral coexistence using a decisiontheoretic framework called partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP). The POMDP framework's natural look-ahead feature allows us to trade off short-term for long-term performance, which is necessary in waveform codesign problems with competing objectives and dynamic user needs. As POMDPs are computationally intractable, we extend two approximation methods called nominal belief-state optimization and random-sampling multipath hypothesis propagation to make the codesign approaches tractable.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
