Abstract
Phase-coded frequency-modulated continuous wave (PC-FMCW) signals have emerged as a promising waveform, enabling high-performance radar sensing and efficient communication in joint radar and communication (RadCom) systems. However, achieving reliable high-data-rate communication in such systems requires robust synchronization between inherently incoherent RadCom units. This paper introduces a novel synchronization method tailored for incoherent PC-FMCW communication links, leveraging a Costas-loop-based synchronization architecture. The proposed approach is validated through comprehensive simulations and experimental measurements conducted at 25 GHz, which demonstrate its effectiveness for high-rate data transmission in next-generation RadCom systems.
