An information-theoretic criterion is adopted to improve the radar detection performance, while the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio requirement is imposed on each downlink user to ensure communication quality. In addition, similarity restriction is also involved to manage some significant radar waveform characteristics. An iterative algorithm is introduced to tackle the resulted nonconvex and NP-hard problem. In each iteration, several subproblems are developed to decompose the original problem and are solved by the lower bound maximization and the alternating direction method of multiplier algorithm. Numerical simulations show that the proposed algorithm allows the objective function to increase monotonically and finally converge to a finite value. It also shows that the codesign scheme can effectively optimize the radar detection performance while ensuring the achievable sum rate and the bit error rate of the communication system. 收起
