In this article, we consider the problem of beampattern synthesis with sidelobe control using constant modulus weights. We specifically focus on two applications, i.e., notching and sidelobe-level (SLL) control (SLC). The considered problem is a challenging NP-hard due to the employed constant-modulus weights. Here, we convert the problem into an intermediate form by incorporating auxiliary variables and changing the form of the constant modulus. Then, we decompose the intermediate form into subproblems of single constraint each. Finally, we propose an iterative solution following the alternate direction method of multipliers (ADMM) and Proximal frameworks. The proposed solution solves the original problem by iteratively solving the subproblems in coordinated logical order. Importantly, it combines the convergence speed of ADMM and convergence property of Proximal methods. In addition, it always satisfies the constant modulus constraint. The solution has a significant contribution to mitigate interference using notching and to realize RadCom. Simulation results show that the proposed solution has a better performance in terms of computational speed, notching, and constant SLL than the previous works.
