Abstract
- Due to its noise-like signal property, digital orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) radars are often assumed to be robust against interference. While a lot of research has been carried out for interference between different modulation schemes, the mechanisms of interference from OFDM to OFDM radars have been barely addressed. This paper provides a thorough analysis of mutual OFDM to OFDM interference based on radar measurements using a 4x4 77 GHz multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) OFDM radar prototype. The effects of interference are described both qualitatively and quantitatively for cyclic-prefix and stepped-carrier OFDM. Second, it is shown that conventional mitigation methods in the spectrogram are not suitable due to the random coding of cyclic-prefix OFDM. As an alternative, the application of adaptive beamforming is proposed and two realization possibilities are provided. Finally, new mitigation strategies in the modulation domain are proposed. They allow to shape interference to specific range-Doppler cells, yielding an interference-free range-velocity map for the area of interest. Additionally, the method may be used as the basis to enable simple conventional interference mitigation strategies.<br />publishedVersion
