Abstract [en]
In real-world engineering problems, several conflicting objective functions have often to be optimized simultaneously. Typically, the objective functions of these problems are too complex to solve using derivative-based optimization methods. Integration of navigation and radar functionality with communication applications is such a problem. Designing sequences for these systems is a difficult task. This task is further complicated by the following factors: (i) conflicting requirements on autocorrelation and crosscorrelation characteristics; (ii) the associated cost functions might be irregular and may have several local minima. Traditional or gradient based optimization methods may face challenges or are unsuitable to solve such a complex problem. In this paper, we pose simultaneous optimization of autocorrelation and crosscorrelation characteristics of Oppermann sequences as a multiobjective problem. We compare the performance of prominent state-of-the-art multiobjective evolutionary meta-heuristic algorithms to design Oppermann sequences for integrated radar and communication systems. © 2017 IEEE.
