System and method for adaptive broadcast radar system
A method for transmitting a signal waveform from a transmitter within an adaptive broadcast radar system. In one embodiment, wherein the transmitter comprises at least one sub-aperture, the method includes: generating the signal waveform at the at least one sub-aperture; coding the signal waveform at the at least one sub-aperture, wherein the signal waveform is coded with transmitter data; phase shifting the signal waveform at the at least one sub-aperture; and, transmitting the coded signal waveform from an array element coupled to the sub-aperture according to the phase shifting.
1. A method for transmitting a signal waveform from a transmitter within an adaptive broadcast radar system, wherein said transmitter comprises at least one sub-aperture, comprising:
generating said signal waveform at said at least one sub-aperture;
coding said signal waveform at said at least one sub-aperture, wherein said signal waveform is coded with transmitter data;
phase shifting said signal waveform at said at least one sub-aperture; and
transmitting said coded signal waveform from an array element coupled to said sub-aperture according to said phase shifting.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising applying a weight vector to said signal waveform at said at least one sub-aperture.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said transmitter data includes the degrees of freedom associated with said transmitter.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising creating a train of pulses from said signal waveform within said transmitter, wherein said train of pulses are coded.
