We consider waveform design for colocated multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems where the signal phase is subject to random phase perturbations during propagation. We formulate an iterative algorithm to obtain both waveform parameters and the space-time adaptive weights to maximize the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). We ensure that the impact of the chosen waveforms on the interference signal is accounted for when modeling the second-order interference statistics. The waveform design technique is then extended to include peak-to-average power constraints. An example of a clutter and target model is provided to show how the optimal waveform design improves radar detection performance in the presence of the signal phase randomization.
