| Summary: | This study investigated the integration of detection and communication techniques. First, the fractional-order Fourier transform (FRFT) is introduced, and the golden section method, parabolic interpolation, and Brent method are applied to search for the optimal fractional-order domain to accurately estimate the parameters of the linear frequency modulation (LFM) signal. Second, the three search algorithms and the performance of the integrated sensing and communication waveform are simulated. The Brent method improves the parameter searching efficiency by approximately 30% compared with the golden section method; the bit error ratio (BER) of the integrated LFM signal can reach 10<sup>−4</sup> with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 3 dB. The results show that the integrated waveform can realize the detection function with guaranteed communication performance. An anti-frequency sweeping interference method based on the fractional domain matching order was also carried out to optimize the detection performance of the integrated waveform. Through the analysis of the difference-frequency signal under frequency sweeping interference, two methods, direct filtering, and pairwise cancellation filtering, are used to suppress the interference signal and detect the target distance. The simulation evaluated the detection performance of the two methods under different signal-to-interference ratios (SIR) and filter widths. The simulation results show that the pairwise cancellation filtering suppresses the frequency sweeping interference by 4–6 dB more than the direct filtering with an SIR ≤ −15 dB. Both filtering methods can correctly extract the target position information under frequency sweeping interference with a low signal-to-interference ratio (SIR). In conclusion, this study provides an effective solution for parameter estimation optimization and frequency-sweeping interference suppression for FRFT-based sensing communication systems. |
