Waveform design and analysis for radar and communication integration system

Nowadays integration of electronic platforms has been a new research area, in which the radar and communication integration system is becoming a hot topic. Aiming to solve the incompatibility of signal design between the radar and communication applications, and followed by the principle of signal energy sharing, a radar and communication integration system based on random stepped frequency waveform is proposed. The transmission information is modulated on the carrier frequency, which accomplished the communication function without affecting the imaging radar performance. The radar imaging is mainly accomplished using Compressed Sensing theory. Simulations and analysis prove its feasibility.
