Enhancing the Communication Bandwidth of FH-MIMO DFRC Systems Through Constellation Rotation Modulation by Jiangtao Liu, Weibin Jiang, Wentie Yang, Tao Su, Jianzhong Chen

“…The impact of the proposed modulation on radar detection range and detection performance was analyzed in conjunction with radar equations and ambiguity functions. Finally, achieved through simulation analysis of radar and communication systems, as well as actual system testing on an SDR platform, the simulation and experimental results indicate that CRM modulation can significantly enhance communication bandwidth while maintaining radar detection performance, thereby validating the accuracy and reliability of the theory.…”
