Threat-Based Resource Allocation Strategy for Target Tracking in a Cognitive Radar Network (2311.13906v1)
Abstract: Cognitive radar is developed to utilize the feedback of its operating environment obtained from a beam to make resource allocation decisions by solving optimization problems. Previous works focused on target tracking accuracy by designing an evaluation metric for an optimization problem. However, in a real combat situation, not only the tracking performance of the target but also its operational perspective should be considered. In this study, the usage of threats in the allocation of radar resource is proposed for a cognitive radar framework. Resource allocation regarding radar dwell time is considered to reflect the operational importance of target effects. The dwell time allocation problem is solved using a Second-Order Cone Program (SOCP). Numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
