Receiver Structures for Phase Modulated FMCW Radars

Two receiver structures of phase modulated FMCW signals with low ADC sampling requirement are investigated, namely the matched filter of the dechirped signal and the group delay filter approach. The sensing performance of the investigated receiver strategies are analyzed in application to BPSK modulated chirp. Numerical simulations demonstrate...

Experimental Investigation of Phase Coded FMCW for Sensing and Communications

The phase coded FMCW and its properties for joint sensing and communication are studied. Two different receiver structures for the sensing properties of this waveform are compared theoretically and experimentally. It is shown both by simulations and experiments that the phased coded FMCW combines communication capabilities of PMCW and sensing...

System Level Synchronization of Phase-Coded FMCW Automotive Radars for RadCom

This paper describes an FMCW based radar and communication (RadCom) system and addresses the challenges in the synchronization of multiple units for communication functionality. We proposed a novel technique to detect the FMCW RadCom signal at the communication receiver and derive the detection and false alarm probabilities of it. Moreover,...

Automotive RADAR: Real-time implementation of joint sensing and communication waveform on a microcontroller

The automotive radars are significantly drifting towards the 77GHz electromagnetic spectrum band, and by 2020, they will no longer operate in the 24GHz band as per the regulations given by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in Europe and the U.S. With the communication systems...
