Abstract

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) waveforms are viable
alternative signals to be used for a new generation of radar networks. A network
of radars using OFDM signals enhances the information acquired in the
detection process when compared with that obtained by a single station. A set
of experiments have been performed to demonstrate and verify OFDM-radar
signals allowing communications among radar stations taking into account both
the current electronic capabilities and signal parameters needed for a proper
radar-communication synergy.
