Methods for radar coexistence

A method and apparatus for selecting frequency modulated continuous wave waveform parameters for multiple radar coexistence by a user equipment is described. The user equipment may transmit a radar waveform consisting of a number of chirps, with each chirp having a same duration. The user equipment may vary waveform parameters of the radar waveform for at least a subset of the number of chirp, where the waveform parameters may be chosen from a codebook comprising at least one codeword of parameters. Reflected radar waveforms are received and processed where the processing includes applying a fast time discrete Fourier transform to reflected radar waveforms to produce a one dimension peak in a time delay dimension for each reflected waveform; and applying a slow time discrete Fourier transform to the reflected radar waveforms, where peaks for the reflected waveforms are added.

System and methods for generating and receiving doppler tolerant multipurpose communication waveform

A system and method for generating communications waveforms that can operate in congested frequency spaces and in applications in which the receiver is moving with respect to the transmitter is provided. In one or more examples, each symbol to be encoded and transmitted is converted into a sequence of frequency chirps. The sequence of frequencies used by the sequence of chirps is based on the symbol that is to be encoded. Each chirp can have a center frequency, and the frequency can be swept over the duration of the chirp. In this way each chirp can have a varying frequency over the duration of the chirp, but the phase of the chirp can be continuous throughout the duration of the chirp. The bandwidth and sweep rate of the chirp can be based on the expected maximum velocity of the receiver and the transmitter relative to one another.
