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, a trio of eminent electrical engineers delivers a practical and informative contribution to the diffusion of newly developed joint radar-communications (JRC) tools into the radar and communications communities and to illustrate recent successes in applying modern signal processing theories to core problems in JRC. The book offers new results on algorithmic methods and applications of JRC in diverse areas, including autonomous vehicles, waveform design, information theory, privacy, security, beamforming, estimation theory, and sampling.

The distinguished editors bring together contributions from leading JRC researchers working in radar systems, remote sensing, electromagnetics, optimization, and signal processing. 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 joint radar-communications theory and applications, joint precoding and beamforming, and communications-based JRC
• Comprehensive explorations of JRC processing via matrix completion, interference mitigation techniques, and jamming and clutter in JRC
• Practical discussions of information-theoretic aspects of JRC, optimization aspects of JRC, and JRC resource allocation
• In-depth examinations of cognition and JRC, automotive JRC, and dual-function radar communications

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