Myers, N.J. (author), Heath, Robert W. (author)Phased arrays, commonly used in IEEE 802.11ad and 5G radios, are capable of focusing radio frequency signals in a specific direction or a spatial region. Beamforming achieves such directional or spatial concentration of signals and enables phased array-based radios to achieve high data rates. Designing beams for millimeter wave and terahertz...journal article 2022

Wang, J. (author)In this paper, constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detector-based approaches are proposed for interference mitigation of Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radars. The proposed methods exploit the fact that after dechirping and low-pass filtering operations the targets' beat signals of FMCW radars are composed of exponential sinusoidal...journal article 2022

Wang, J. (author), Ding, Ming (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper, the interference mitigation for Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar system with a dechirping receiver is investigated. After dechirping operation, the scattered signals from targets result in beat signals, i.e., the sum of complex exponentials while the interferences lead to chirp-like short pulses. Taking...journal article 2022

(author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)The sensing properties of the binary phase codes are investigated with their application to phase-coded (linearly) frequency modulated continuous waveform (PC-FMCW). It is shown that the ambiguity function of FMCW signal modulated with a binary phase code corresponds to sheared ambiguity function of the code itself.
