Abstract - Effective resource management is critical for optimizing the performance of multifunction phased array radar (MPAR) systems in dynamic environments. This example explores a quality-of-service (QoS) optimization approach for MPAR surveillance resource allocation across multiple search sectors. Traditionally, resource management in MPAR systems focuses on maximizing radar performance metrics like cumulative detection range. However, with the emergence of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication networks, there is a growing need to integrate radar surveillance with communication functions. This example addresses this challenge by developing a resource management scheme that balances radar resources between surveillance tasks and V2V communication requirements. By considering the unique characteristics of both radar surveillance and V2V communication, the proposed approach aims to enhance situational awareness and safety in complex environments. Through numeric optimization techniques, the allocation of power-aperture product (PAP) to each search sector is optimized to maximize QoS, leading to more efficient and effective MPAR surveillance in integrated radar-communication systems.
