    Nonlinear Frequency Modulated Waveform Optimization for a Cooperative Radar-Communication System
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Mahipathi, A.C.; Gunnery, S.; Srihari, P.; D'Souza, J.; Jena, P.
    Co-existence research related to radar and communication systems has gained significant interest in the last decade to address the spectrum scarcity issues. Designing an optimal waveform for a Joint Radar-Communication (JRC) system is an important consideration to practically realize the convergence of these two subsystems. This paper proposes a Power Ratio Constraint (PRC) based optimization technique to evaluate phase coefficients of Non Linear Frequency Modulated (NLFM) waveform for a Cooperative Radar-Communication System (CRCS). The radar waveform is optimized here using the Cramér-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) metric in conjunction with the PRC. We investigated the spectral energy distribution, auto correlation function, and estimation rate for radar systems using optimized NLFM waveform phase coefficients. In addition, data rate for communication system is computed. Further, the simulation results shows that, proposed joint PRC-CRLB based optimization method confines the radar spectrum, reduces the delay ambiguities and enhances the information rate of CRCS. © 2021 IEEE.
