Signal Processing for Joint Radar Communications

A one-stop, comprehensive source for the latest research in joint radar communications

In Signal Processing for Joint Radar Communications, four eminent electrical engineers deliver a practical and informative contribution to the diffusion of newly developed joint radar communications (JRC) tools into the sensing and communications communities. This book illustrates recent successes in applying modern signal processing theories to core problems in JRC. The book offers new results on algorithms and applications of JRC from diverse perspectives, including waveform design, physical layer processing, privacy, security, hardware prototyping, resource allocation, and sampling theory.

The distinguished editors bring together contributions from more than 40 leading JRC researchers working on remote sensing, electromagnetics, optimization, signal processing, and beyond 5G wireless networks. The included resources provide an in-depth mathematical treatment of relevant signal processing tools and computational methods allowing readers to take full advantage of JRC systems.

Readers will also find:

• Thorough introductions to fundamental limits and background on JRC theory and applications, including dual-function radar communications, cooperative JRC, distributed JRC, and passive JRC


• Comprehensive explorations of JRC processing via waveform analyses, interference mitigation, and modeling with jamming and clutter


• Practical discussions of information-theoretic, optimization, and networking aspects of JRC


• In-depth examinations of JRC applications in cutting-edge scenarios including automotive systems, intelligent reflecting surfaces, and secure parameter estimation

Perfect for researchers and professionals in the fields of radar, signal processing, communications, information theory, networking, and electronic warfare, Signal Processing for Joint Radar Communications will also earn a place in the libraries of engineers working in the defense, aerospace, wireless communications, and automotive industries.
