Abstract :
A processing technique that utilizes the OFDM communication waveform as the radar waveform is considered. The double use of the waveform for communications and radar enables establishing radar networks communicating through the radar beam. The processing technique exploits the Doppler sensitivity of the OFDM to reduce the Doppler ambiguity. An enhancement to the waveform and the processing is proposed to completely eliminate the Doppler ambiguity.
