TI  - Sub-Nyquist Sampling OFDM Radar With a Time-Frequency Phase-Coded Waveform
N2  - This paper presents a time-frequency phase-coded sub-Nyquist sampling orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (PC-SNS-OFDM) radar system to reduce the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) sampling rate without any additional hardware or signal processing. The proposed radar divides the transmitted OFDM signal into multiple sub-bands along the frequency axis and provides orthogonality to these sub-bands by multiplying phase codes in both the time and frequency domains. Although the sampling rate is reduced by the factor of the number of sub-bands, the sub-bands above the sampling rate are folded into the lowest one due to aliasing. In the process of restoring the signals in folded sub-bands to those in full signal bands, the proposed PC-SNS-OFDM radar effectively eliminates symbolmismatch noise while introducing trade-offs in the range and Doppler ambiguities. The utilization of phase codes in both the frequency and time domains provides flexible control of the range and Doppler ambiguities. It also improves the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of detected targets compared to an earlier sub-Nyquist sampling OFDM radar system. This is validated with simulations and experiments under various sub-Nyquist sampling rates
