Abstract

Dual-functional radar-communication (DFRC), integrating the two functions into one system and sharing one transmitted signal, shows its great potential in self-driving networks. In this paper, we develop a single-device based multi-input single-output (MISO) DFRC vehicular system. Modulations of un-slotted ALOHA frequency-hopping (UA-FH) and fast FH, commonly used in automotive radar, are adopted to transmit the DFRC waveforms and to address severe interferences caused by an interfering vehicle that serves as a communication transmitter. Due to the asynchrony between vehicles, the FH sequences of the interfering vehicle are chosen from a fixed codebook. All channel parameters are then extracted via FH decoding from radar backscattered channels and communication channels, respectively. To further increase the accuracy, we proceed to propose an iterative algorithm that divides the signals into short segments and jointly obtains all parameters with high resolution. Finally, simulation results are provided and validate the proposed DFRC vehicular system.
