Abstract :
In this paper the possibility of designing an OFDM system for simultaneous radar and communications operations is discussed. A novel approach to OFDM radar processing is introduced that overcomes the typical drawbacks of correlation based processing. A suitable OFDM system parameterization for operation at 24 GHz is derived that fulfills the requirements for both applications. The operability of the proposed system concept is verified with MatLab simulations.
