The application of complete complementary codes in MIMO radar

Abstract

We introduce Complete Complementary Codes (CCC) into Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar in this paper. By using CCC, MIMO radar can achieve perfect elimination of waveform cross-correlation and autocorrelation sidelobes when Doppler shift is zero. When Doppler shift is not zero, we propose a new CCC construction method by using generalized Prouhet-Thue-Morse code (GPTM) which can make CCC Doppler resilient at modest Doppler shift.
