NC-OFDM RadCom system for electromagnetic spectrum interference

A joint radar and wireless communication system is an important trend for future intelligent transportation networks. However, traditional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) radar and communication (RadCom) system is not feasible for complex electromagnetic. A new based on non-contiguous OFDM (NC-OFDM) RadCom system is proposed. Following the concept of cognitive radio (CR), NC-OFDM system is able to flexibly allocate spectrum resources, and NC-OFDM system can effectively adapt to dynamic spectrum environment. Simulation results demonstrate that, the NC-OFDM RadCom system is feasible for the purpose of target detection and wireless communication simultaneously.
