摘要: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for generating and utilizing radar signals with embedded data are disclosed. Data is encoded onto a CPM waveform, which is then combined with a base radar waveform to produce a radar-embedded communication (REC) waveform. Both the CPM waveform and the base radar waveform may have a continuous phase and constant envelope, resulting in the REC waveform having a continuous phase and constant envelope. The changing (e.g., on a pulse-to-pulse basis) nature of the REC waveform causes RSM of clutter which may result in residual clutter after clutter cancellation, decreasing target detection performance of the radar system. In an aspect, various parameters may be utilized to dynamically adjust the performance of the radar system for a particular operating scenario, such as to enhance radar signal processing or enhance data communication capabilities.

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.

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: The present application discloses a new form of μ-STAP, referred to herein as post μ-STAP or Pμ-STAP, which overcomes the drawbacks associated with existing μ-STAP techniques. The Pμ-STAP techniques described herein facilitate the generation of additional training data and homogenization after pulse compression. For example, Pμ-STAP techniques may apply a plurality of homogenization filters to a pulse compressed datacube generated from an input radar waveform, which produces a plurality of new pulse compressed datacubes with improved characteristics. Unlike existing μ-STAP techniques described above, which require prepulse compressed data to operate, the Pμ-STAP techniques disclosed in the present application are designed to utilize pulse compressed data, and therefore may be readily applied to legacy radar systems.
