Evaluation of the ambiguity function for passive radar with OFDM transmissions
The presence of clutter in passive radar returns imposes a minimum floor level on the ambiguity surface, masking weak returns and reducing dynamic range. When the illuminating signal is a form of OFDM, orthogonality between subcarriers can be exploited to produce a zero floor within certain delay bins. In this paper we compare and contrast several such ambiguity processing techniques for general OFDM signals. The methods are applied to simulated and real DVB-T passive radar returns having a wide range of delays. It is shown that an OFDM-specific method can outperform a standard pulse-Doppler processing method under certain conditions. An example is provided using real German DVB-T data from Fraunhofer FHR.
