Adaptive transmit array sidelobe control using FDA-MIMO for tracking in joint radar-communications

In this paper, we present an adaptive closed–loop range-angle dependent sidelobe control using frequency diverse array (FDA) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) design for joint radar-communications. The system carries out tracking of the target and the communication receiver, while transmitting information bits towards the intended communication receiver using a flexible sidelobe control, i.e., controlling the power emitted at a certain...
