In this paper, we further expand on the work in [1] that focused on the localization of targets in a 2D space using 1-bit dithered measurements coming from a 2 receiving antennae radar. Our aim is to further reduce the hardware requirements and bit-rate, by dropping one of the baseband IQ channel from each receiving antenna. To that end, the structure of the received signals is exploited to recover the positions of multiple targets. Simulations are performed to highlight the accuracy and limitations of the proposed scheme under severe bit-rate reduction.

We present a novel scheme allowing for 2D target localization using highly quantized 1-bit measurements from a Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar with two receiving antennas. Quantization of radar signals introduces localization artifac ts, we remove this limitation by inserting a dithering on the unquantized observations. We then adapt the projected back projection algorithm to estimate both the range and angle of targets from the dithered quantized radar observations, with provably decaying reconstruction error when the number of observations increases. Simulations are performed to highlight the accuracy of the dithered scheme in noiseless conditions when compared to the non-dithered and full 32-bit resolution under severe bit-rate reduction. Finally, measurements are performed using a radar sensor to demonstrate the effectiveness and performances of the proposed quantized dithered scheme in real conditions.

One-bit radar, performing signal sampling and quantization by a one-bit ADC, is a promising technology for many civilian applications due to its low-cost and low-power consumptions. In this paper, problems encountered by one-bit LFMCW radar are studi ed and a two-stage target detection method termed as the dimension-reduced generalized approximate message passing (DR-GAMP) approach is proposed. Firstly, the spectrum of one-bit quantized signals in a scenario with multiple targets is analyzed. It is indicated that high-order harmonics may result in false alarms (FAs) and cannot be neglected. Secondly, based on the spectrum analysis, the DR-GAMP approach is proposed to carry out target detection. Specifically, linear preprocessing methods and target predetection are firstly adopted to perform the dimension reduction, and then, the GAMP algorithm is utilized to suppress high-order harmonics and recover true targets. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of one-bit LFMCW radar under typical parameters. It is shown that compared to the conventional radar applying linear processing methods, one-bit LFMCW radar has about $1.3$ dB performance gain when the input signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of targets are low. In the presence of a strong target, it has about $1.0$ dB performance loss.
We consider the problem of range-Doppler imaging using one-bit automotive LFMCW1 or PMCW radar that utilizes one-bit ADC sampling with time-varying thresholds at the receiver. The one-bit sampling technique can significantly reduce the cost as well a s the power consumption of automotive radar systems. We formulate the one-bit LFMCW/PMCW radar rangeDoppler imaging problem as one-bit sparse parameter estimation. The recently proposed hyperparameter-free (and hence user friendly) weighted SPICE algorithms, including SPICE, LIKES, SLIM and IAA, achieve excellent parameter estimation performance for data sampled with high precision. However, these algorithms cannot be used directly for one-bit data. In this paper we first present a regularized minimization algorithm, referred to as 1bSLIM, for accurate range-Doppler imaging using onebit radar systems. Then, we describe how to extend the SPICE, LIKES and IAA algorithms to the one-bit data case, and refer to these extensions as 1bSPICE, 1bLIKES and 1bIAA. These onebit hyperparameter-free algorithms are unified within the one-bit weighted SPICE framework. Moreover, efficient implementations of the aforementioned algorithms are investigated that rely heavily on the use of FFTs. Finally, both simulated and experimental examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms for range-Doppler imaging using one-bit automotive radar systems.
In this paper, we propose a novel waveform design for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) dual-functional radar-communication systems by taking the range sidelobe control into consideration. In particular, we focus on optimizing the weighted summation of communication and radar metrics under per-antenna power budget. While the formulated optimization problem is non-convex, we develop a first-order descent algorithm by exploiting the manifold structure of its feasible region, which finds a near-optimal solution within a low computational overhead. Numerical results show that the proposed waveform design outperforms the conventional techniques by improving the communication rate while reducing the range sidelobe level.
Dual-Functional Radar-Communication (DFRC) system is an essential and promising technique for beyond 5G. In this work, we propose a powerful and unified multi-antenna DFRC transmission framework, where an additional radar sequence is transmitted apar t from communication streams to enhance radar beampattern matching capability, and Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) is adopted to better manage the interference. RSMA relies on multi-antenna Rate-Splitting (RS) with Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) receivers, and the split and encoding of messages into common and private streams. We design the message split and the precoders of the radar sequence and communication streams to jointly maximize the Weighted Sum Rate (WSR) and minimize the radar beampattern approximation Mean Square Error (MSE) subject to the per antenna power constraint. An iterative algorithm based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is developed to solve the problem. Numerical results first show that RSMA-assisted DFRC achieves a better tradeoff between WSR and beampattern approximation than Space-Division Multiple Access (SDMA)-assisted DFRC with or without radar sequence, and other simpler radar-communication strategies using orthogonal resources. We also show that the RSMA-assisted DFRC frameworks with and without radar sequence achieve the same tradeoff performance. This is because that the common stream is better exploited in the proposed framework. The common stream of RSMA fulfils the triple function of managing interference among communication users, managing interference between communication and radar, and beampattern approximation. Therefore, by enabling RSMA in DFRC, the system performance is enhanced while the system architecture is simplified since there is no need to use additional radar sequence and SIC. We conclude that RSMA is a more powerful multiple access for DFRC.
