Abstract
In this paper, we propose a multi-beam integrated radar and communication scheme using phased-array antenna, in which the same LFM-BPSK integrated waveform is used for both the radar and the communication beams. In the integrated beam design, the radar beam is periodically scanned in different directions for detection, and the communication beam is periodically manipulated in one direction for communication. The system’s beamforming uses adaptive beamforming technology to achieve radar echoes and communication reception. For the LFM-BPSK integrated waveform used by the system, we propose a method for estimating parameters during communication reception. Through simulation, the proposed beam-pattern design, adaptive beamforming, and parameter estimation scheme can achieve radar and communication functions using phased-array antennas.
