DAB Processing Chain for Passive Radar Applications
Passive Radar (PR) is a variant of radar technology in which no dedicated transmitter is required for operation. Instead, PR systems use so-called Illuminators of Opportunity (IOO)—such as existing radio-station broadcasts—for the detection of objects in a scene. In the past decade, there has been an increased interest in the use of digital broadcasting signals as IOOs, since these signals offer a variety of benefits in a PR context. One of the digital broadcasting standards that has garnered attention for use in PR is the Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) format—an increasingly-popular mode of digital radio. The aim of this project was to research, design, and implement a DAB processing chain, with the intention that it eventually be integrated into a PR system.
