Improving range resolution with a frequency-hopping technique [PDF]
Range resolution of a conventional pulsed Doppler radar is determined by the scattering volume defined by the transmitted pulse shape. To increase the resolution, the length of the pulse must be reduced.

Micro-Doppler Signal Time-Frequency Algorithm Based on STFRFT
This paper proposes a time-frequency algorithm based on short-time fractional order Fourier transformation (STFRFT) for identification of a complicated movement targets. This algorithm, consisting of a STFRFT order-changing and quick selection method, is

Performance Tradeoffs of Joint Radar-Communication Networks [PDF]
This letter considers a network where nodes share a wireless channel to work in turn as pulse radars for target detection and as transmitters for data exchange. Radar detection range and network throughput are studied using stochastic geometry tools.
