Engineering Next-Generation Wireless Experiences Through Radar and RF Front End System Designs

Abstract

This chapter explores the synergy between radar and radio frequency (RF) front-end systems, ushering in a new era of wireless connectivity. It discusses the collaborative potential of radar and RF, emphasizing their role in enhancing security, reducing interference, and boosting adaptability. The chapter covers radar-based spectrum sensing, which enhances network efficiency, particularly in high-frequency scenarios like 5G. Radar and RF enable precise localization for IoT and autonomous vehicles, surpassing the capabilities of GPS. The chapter highlights radar's contributions to security, threat detection, and reducing signal interference. Radar-assisted RF improves vehicle communication, cooperative driving, and traffic management. In environmental monitoring and disaster management, radar augments RF for early warnings. This integration offers transformative potential, benefiting diverse applications and offering theoretical and practical insights for researchers and engineers. Radar and RF convergence offers a more connected, adaptable, and efficient wireless future.
