Frequency Diverse Array OFDM Transmit System with Partial Overlap in Frequency
Frequency-diverse array (FDA) is an alternative array architecture in which each antenna is preceded by a mixer instead of a phase shifter. The mixers introduce a frequency offset between signals transmitted by each antenna resulting in a time-varying beam pattern. However, time-dependent beamforming is not desirable for communication or sensing. In this paper, the FDA is combined with orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation. The proposed beamforming method splits the OFDM symbol transmitted by all antennas into subcarrier blocks, which are precoded differently. The selected frequency offset between the antennas results in overlap and coherent summation of the differently precoded subcarrier blocks. This allows to achieve fully digital beamforming over a single block with the use of a single digital-to-analog converter. The system's joint communication and sensing performance is evaluated and sensitivity to errors is studied.
