In order to improve both the transmission data rate and the range resolution simultaneously in integrated radar-communication (RadCom) systems, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing with phase-coded and stepped-frequency (OFDM-PCSF) waveform is proposed. A corresponding high resolution range (HRR) profile generation method is also presented. We first perform OFDM-PCSF waveform design by combining the intrapulse phase coding with the interpulse stepped-frequency modulation. We then give the ambiguity function (AF) based on the presented waveforms. Then, the synthetic range profile (SRP) processing to achieve HRR performance is analyzed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed methods can achieve HRR profiles of the targets and high data rate transmissions, while a relative low computational complexity can be achieved.

Stepped-frequency waveform may be used to synthesize a wideband signal with several narrow-band pulses and achieve a high-resolution range profile without increasing the instantaneous bandwidth. Nevertheless, the conventional stepped-frequency waveform is Doppler sensitive, which greatly limits its application to moving targets. For this reason, this paper proposes a waveform design method using a staggered pulse repetition frequency to improve the Doppler tolerance effectively. First, a generalized echo model of the stepped-frequency waveform is constructed in order to analyze the Doppler sensitivity. Then, waveform design is carried out in the stepped-frequency waveform by using a staggered pulse repetition frequency so as to eliminate the high-order phase component that is caused by the target’s velocity. Further, the waveform design method is extended to the sparse stepped-frequency waveform, and we also propose corresponding methods for high-resolution range profile synthesis and motion compensation. Finally, experiments with electromagnetic data verify the high Doppler tolerance of the proposed waveform.
