Introduction

This article is a simulation tutorial for the paper in [1] using Python. The ar-

ticle includes a background on the topic of radar and communications systems

coexistence as an introduction on the topic. Then, it proceeds with the steps

to running the Python code.

1.1 Motivation, Background, and Related Work

The President Council of Advisers on Science and Technology (PCAST) [2]

recommended sharing the shipborne radar spectrum for commercial use [3–5].

This sharing will be beneficial for both economical gains and technological

advancements. Similar recommendations are stated by the Federal Communi-

cations Commission (FCC) promoting sharing of shipborne radar [6–9]. The

effects of radar and communications coexistence with respect to interference

were studied by the National Telecommunications and Information Adminis-

tration (NTIA) [10–12]. Further studies for the radar and communications

coexistence are in [13–16] and simulations in [17–19].

Many studies show that multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radars out-

perform phased-array radars [20–25]. Hence, MIMO radar is the candidate for

future deployments in both civil and military applications [26–31]. For the co-

existence scenario, the higher degrees of freedom of MIMO radars make them

better for coexistence [15, 32–43]. The additional versatility in overlapped

MIMO is shown in [44, 45].

Besides, in the communications side of the coexistence, there is a huge demand

for an increase in the throughput [46–49]. Multiple access techniques are used

to increase the utilization of the available spectrum [50–54], particularly for

MIMO systems [55–59] to increase the quality of service (QoS) [60–62] and

1

quality of experience (QoE) [63, 64]. For instance, QoS improvements applied

to the network layer of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model are shown

in [65–68] while others for physical layer are in [69, 70] and application layer

in [71, 72].

Energy efficiency and game theory applied to QoS for wireless systems are ap-

plied in [73–75] and [76–79], respectively, Long-Term Evolution (LTE) [80–82],

Mobile Broadband [83, 84], Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access

(WiMAX) [85–87] and Universal Mobile Terrestrial System (UMTS) [88–90].

Cross-layer design provides many benefits as shown in [91, 92] and [93–99] for

scheduling and shaping and [100–104] for embedded-based systems and battery

life.

Gains at the communication side for coexistence scenario are in the resource

allocation benefits [77, 105]. For example, delay tolerant applications [106–

109] use resource allocation algorithms such as max-min fairness [110–113],

proportional fairness [114–116], and optimal allocation [117–120] will benefit

from additional resources from the radar spectrum. Real-time applications

[121–126] use resource allocation algorithms such as [127–129] and optimal

solutions [130–137] using convex optimization [138–143].

For our radar/comm coexistence scenario, the utilization of radar spectrum

will be through carrier aggregation methods either non-convex ones in [144–

148] or convex ones in [149–154]. The utilization tools used here can be ex-

tended to ad-hoc networks [155–158], machine to machine (M2M) communi-

cations [159–161], multi-cast networks [162], and other networks [163–167].

1.2 Radar and Communications Model Parameters

The simulation in [1], uses the following system model.

We import the required python libraries:

import numpy as np

from scipy.linalg import null_space

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import pdb

The parameters used in the system model are:

2

#

# System Parameters

#

M = 40 # Number of TX/RX

radar antennas

N = 10 # Number of TX/RX

BS antennas

fc = 3.5*1e9 # Carrier

frequency in Hz

c = 3*1e8 # Speed of light

in m/s

delta_comm = 1/4 # Normalized

antenna separation in lambda at

Comm

delta_radar = 1/4 # Normalized

antenna separation in lambda at

radar

d_radar1_BS1 = 1*1e3 # Distance between

radar TX/RX antenna 1 and BS TX/

RX antenna 1

alpha = np.exp(-1j*2*np.pi*fc*d_radar1_BS1/c) # Attenuation

along the LoS path between Radar

and Comm

theta_target = 0 # Angle of

incidence of the LoS path on the

radar/target

angle_blocked = np.linspace(15, 18, 3) # Angled blocked

Cooperative Coexistence

2.1 System Model

Figure 2.1: System Model

In [1] simulation, out model consists of two systems. The first is MIMO radar

and the second is MIMO communications. The parameters of the system are

presented in Chapter 1. The system model is shown in see Figure 2.1.

2.1.1 Cooperative Beamform

First, we start by computing the steering vector using the following python

code.

In Python:

#

# Computing the steering vector

#

a_T_theta_target = np.matrix(np.exp(-1j * 2 * np.pi * np.asarray(

list(range(M))) * delta_radar *np.pi * theta_target/180)).T

#

4

The channel is computed using the following code.

In Python:

#

# Computing the channel

#

H = np.tile(0.0 + 1j*0.0, (N, M))

for jj in range(np.matrix(angle_blocked).size):

e_N_LoS = 1 / np.sqrt(N) * np.exp(-1j * 2 * np.pi * np.asarray

(list(range(N))) * delta_comm

* np.cos((np.pi / 180)*(90 -

angle_blocked[jj]))) # Comm

e_M_LoS = 1 / np.sqrt(M) * np.exp(-1j * 2 * np.pi * np.asarray

(list(range(M))) *delta_radar * np.cos((np.pi /

180)*(90 - angle_blocked[jj]

))) # Radar

H = H + np.absolute(alpha) * np.matrix(e_N_LoS).T * np.matrix(

e_M_LoS)

#

The pre-coding matrix is computed as shown in the below python code.

In Python:

#

# Computing the pre-coding matrix

#

P = null_space(H) * np.matrix(null_space(H)).H

#

The transmit-receive beam between the radar and the communication system

is computed as show below.

In Python:

#

# Computing the transmit-receive beam

#

theta = np.linspace(-50, 50, 1000)

a_T_theta = np.tile(0.0, theta.size)

G = np.tile(0.0, theta.size)

G_null = np.tile(0.0, theta.size)

for ii in range(np.matrix(theta).size):

5

a_T_theta = np.matrix(np.exp(-1j*2*np.pi*np.asarray(list(range

(M)))*delta_radar*np.pi*theta

[ii]/180)).T

G[ii] = np.log(np.absolute(np.matrix(a_T_theta).H*np.matrix(

a_T_theta_target)))

G_null[ii] = np.log(np.absolute(np.matrix(a_T_theta).H*np.

matrix(np.matrix(P)*np.matrix

(P).H).T*np.matrix(

a_T_theta_target)))

Finally, the code for plotting is as follows.

In Python:

#

# Plotting

#

plt.figure(1)

plt.plot(theta, G, theta, G_null)

plt.xlabel(’theta’)

plt.ylabel(’G & G_null’)

plt.show()

The resulting beamform is shown in Figure 2.2.
