System and method for communicating low data rate information with a radar system

摘要

A method for transmitting low data rate symbols from a burst radar transceiver is disclosed. The method includes dividing a symbol having a symbol period into a plurality of symbol sections. Each symbol section has a symbol section interval that is less than or equal to a burst interval of the radar transceiver. At least two symbol sections can be transmitted with the burst radar transceiver. Symbol energy can be accumulated from the at least two symbol sections at the communications terminal. Information in the received symbol sections can be identified based on characteristics of the accumulated symbol energy.
