Bistatic Reflectivity and Micro-Doppler Signatures of Drones for Integrated Communication and Sensing

The integration of wireless communication and radar sensing is gaining the interest of researchers from wire-less communication and radar societies. Sensing in Integrated Communication and Sensing (ICAS) systems differs from the traditional radar system in the configuration of transmitter-target-receiver, the operating frequency bands, and the trans-mitting waveform. It is necessary to understand how target electromagnetic signatures behave in this context. Therefore, this paper presents measurements and analysis of two important target signatures, reflectivity and micro-Doppler, for sensing in ICAS. These target signatures are measured in the state-of-the-art measurement system, Bistatische- Radar- Messeinrichtung (BiRa).
