Multi-radar coexistence using phase-coded frequency modulated continuous wave waveforms

Methods, systems, and devices for radar signaling are described. In some systems, devices may implement techniques to support coexistence for multiple radar sources using a phase-coded frequency modulated continuous wave waveform. A user equipment (e.g., a vehicle) may select a codeword (e.g., a pattern of parameters) from a codebook and may derive phase code information and waveform shape parameters from values specified in the codeword. The user equipment may apply phase modulation to at least one chirp of a waveform using the indicated phase code. In some cases, the phase-coded frequency modulated continuous wave waveform may resemble nested Zadoff-Chu sequences, where the waveform resembles a Zadoff-Chu sequence and the phase code resembles another Zadoff-Chu sequence. The phase code may support mitigating interference between radar waveforms that use the same slope and frequency offset parameters for chirps overlapping in time.

RADAR-BASED LOCALIZATION FROM INTERFERENCE

A radar-enabled device that manages radar interference. In particular, the radar-enabled device detects a radar signal transmitted by a second radar-enabled device, transmits a notification of the detected radar signal, receives localization information associated with the second radar-enabled device, and sets a device location based on the received localization information. Additionally, the radar-enabled device may adjust a timing of radar signal transmissions to avoid subsequent detections of radar signals transmitted by the second radar-enabled device.

Hierarchical Positioning for Low Cost and Low Power Asset Tracking

A TRP clusters multiple UEs into a group, configures selected ones of the UEs in the group to be head UEs, and configures UEs not selected as head UEs to be group UEs. The group UEs are configured to send signals or calculated information used for positioning of the group UEs to head UEs instead of to the TRP. The TRP receives calculated information that was calculated by the head UEs from the signals or calculated information used for positioning of the group UEs, and forwards the calculated information from the head user equipment toward a network node for position determination of the group UEs. The head UEs both transmit to and receive signals from the group UEs and use the signals to calculate the calculated information. The head UEs may also receive information calculated by the group UEs, which is also used to calculate the calculated information.
