Abstract
In this paper, we explore a multiple-input multiple- output (MIMO) system with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmissions and study the low peak- to-average power ratio (PAPR) MIMO-OFDM waveform design for integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). This is done by leveraging a weighted objective function on both communication and radar performance metrics under power and PAPR constraints. The formulated optimization problem can be equivalently transformed into several sub-problems which can be parallelly solved by the semi-definite relaxation (SDR) method and the optimal rank-1 solution can be obtained in general. The feasibility, effectiveness, and flexibility of the proposed low-PAPR MIMO-OFDM waveform design method are demonstrated by a range of simulations on communication sum rate, symbol error rate as well as radar beampattern and detection probability
