This paper deals with the robust waveform design of multiple-input multiple-output radar to improve target detectability embedded in signal-dependent interferences. Two iterative algorithms with ensuring convergence properties are introduced to maximize the worst case signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) over steering matrix mismatches under the constant modulus and similarity constraints. Each iteration of the proposed algorithms splits the high-dimensional problem into multiple one dimensional problems, to which the optimal solutions can be found in polynomial times. Numerical examples are provided to assess the capabilities of the proposed techniques in comparison with the existing methods in terms of the SINR and the computational times for both the continuous and discrete phase cases of the probing signal.
