    摘要: A receiver method and apparatus provides a more efficient computation and application of optimal filters. Range and Doppler processing in the receiver are decoupled and, as a result, computational complexity required for both filter computation and filtering stages are significantly reduced. In one embodiment, a response to an emitted signal is demodulated and sampled to provide baseband samples. The response includes a component due to interaction of the emitted signal with a target, The baseband samples are filtered in a bank of N parallel range filters to provide N filter outputs for each of the baseband samples. For one or more Doppler phase shifts ϕ, a discrete Fourier transform of the N filter outputs is computed to produce Doppler components that may be analyzed to determine at least one of a presence, range and speed of the target.

    摘要: Systems and methods of embodiments provide a feasible approach to implementing Far-Field Radiated Emission Design (FFRED) techniques suitable for simultaneous transmission of radar and communication signals. A set of signals for transmission and a transmission direction for each signal of the set of signals may be determined. The set of signals includes at least a first signal associated with a first transmission direction and a second signal associated with a second transmission direction that is different from the first direction. An optimization problem is configured based on characteristics of an antenna array and the set of signals and then solved to identify a set of waveforms suitable for transmitting the signals. The set of waveforms may include at least two waveforms, each of the at least two waveforms configured for transmission by a different antenna element of the antenna array. The determined waveforms may be coherent in the far-field and suitable for power efficient transmission.
