High-Throughput Wireless Communications Encoded Using Radar Waveforms

The ever-increasing demands in both radar operations and communication systems require robust and highly efficient technologies. It's critical to have communication channels that can manage high data rates without compromising overall system performance. Similarly, in radar operations, accuracy and responsiveness are paramount, necessitating sophisticated technology to deal with technical constraints inherent in radar signal procession. Current technologies often treat radar and communication systems as separate entities that work in different spectrum bands. This separation sometimes leads to spectrum scarcity, reducing the overall efficiency of both systems. Furthermore, the conventional communication channels can sometimes fail to provide the expected data rate, leading to bottlenecks in information flow.

Technology Description

The innovation is a high-throughput communication channel using specially formulated transmit waveforms. These waveforms address  technical constraints that are considered crucial to ensure the effectiveness of radar operations and signal processing. Thus, it not only enhances communication speed but also ensures the accuracy of radar functions. The utility of this technology goes beyond these primary features as it also introduces cooperative spectrum sharing. Radar and communications systems traditionally function on different spectrums, sometimes creating obstacles in communications. This invention paves the way for these systems to share a common spectrum, effectively reducing interference and boosting the overall performance and efficiency of both radar and communications systems.
