Since all content from same paper, maybe cite each section heading first paragraph or maybe not every paragraph. We'll keep one cite in first paragraph and maybe one in sections when formulas or performance specific. Need maybe mention "This suggests..." for inferences. Most of content can remain factual.

BER and NMSE improvements over baselines. Practical section: synchronization, windowing, calibration, parameter trade-offs, limitations. Also common misconceptions: not explicit beat-frequency estimator like conventional FMCW; fast-time cyclic correlation produces delay peaks rather than explicit $f_b$ sinusoids. Good that's in data. Could state in practical or conceptual distinction. Need maybe mention "ghost peaks due to OFDM pilot periodicity are avoided in Co-FMCW-OFDM." That's a concrete claim from data. Good. Need ensure no claim like "editor's term" maybe unnecessary. Let's draft with concise but comprehensive tone. Fast Cyclic Correlation Radar (FCCR) is a sensing algorithm proposed within the coordinated FMCW-OFDM (Co-FMCW-OFDM) integrated sensing and communication framework. In that architecture, an FMCW signal is superimposed on an OFDM signal so that sensing and communication share the same RF front end, antennas, and spectral resources, while the FMCW component simultaneously supports bistatic sensing and channel estimation at the receiver. FCCR exploits the cyclostationarity created by the repeated FMCW chirp, together with an all-zero cyclic prefix aligned to the OFDM cyclic prefix, to estimate target delay and Doppler, suppress data-dependent OFDM interference, and maintain low computational complexity through FFT-based processing. Within the cyclic-prefix span, the method is described as achieving near-ML sensing performance [2509.25750]. ## 1. Position within the Co-FMCW-OFDM architecture The Co-FMCW-OFDM waveform is defined by the baseband superposition $$ s(t)=s_{\mathrm{OFDM}}(t)+s_{\mathrm{FMCW}}(t). $$ The transmitted pulse-shaped signal is $$ x(t)=\sqrt{1-P_s}\,(g_0*s_{\mathrm{FMCW}})(t)+\sqrt{P_s}\,(g_0*s_{\mathrm{OFDM}})(t), $$ with total power budget normalized to $1$ and $P_s\in(0,1)$ denoting the fraction allocated to OFDM. The OFDM portion uses $M$ symbols of duration $T_{\mathrm{sym}}=T+T_{\mathrm{cp}}$, subcarrier spacing $\Delta f=1/T$, $N$ subcarriers, and cyclic-prefix length $T_{\mathrm{cp}}$. The FMCW portion is a linear chirp repeated once per OFDM symbol, with repetition period $T_r=T_{\mathrm{sym}}$, bandwidth $B$, chirp duration $T_{\mathrm{chirp}}$, sweep slope $k=B/T_{\mathrm{chirp}}$, and RF center frequency $f_c$ [2509.25750]. A defining structural feature is that the FMCW chirp has an all-zero cyclic prefix aligned with the OFDM cyclic prefix. In continuous time, the chirp is zero over the cyclic-prefix interval, linear-FM over the data interval, and zero over the final guard interval. After sampling with $T_s=1/(N\Delta f)$, the discrete FMCW symbol satisfies $$ s_{\mathrm{FMCW},m}[n]=e^{j\pi \kappa n^2+j\phi_0},\qquad n=0,\ldots,N-1, $$ with $\kappa=kT_s^2$, while remaining zero on the chirp cyclic-prefix region $n=-N_{\mathrm{cp}},\ldots,-1$. This alignment reduces FMCW-OFDM overlap interference and, crucially, enables the circular processing used by FCCR. The system is bistatic in the sensing interpretation described for the receiver. The same transmitted chirp is known at the receiver and therefore plays a pilot-like role for both delay-Doppler extraction and subsequent sensing-aided channel estimation. FCCR is therefore not an isolated radar primitive; it is one element of a larger ISAC signal chain in which sensing, channel estimation, and interference cancellation are tightly coupled. ## 2. Signal model and arbitrary-delay channel structure After pulse shaping and matched filtering with $g=g_0*g_0$, the received signal is modeled as $$ r(t)=\sum_{\ell=1}^{L} h_\ell s(t-\tau_\ell)e^{j2\pi f_{D,\ell}t}+w(t), $$ where $L$ is the actual number of physical paths or targets, $\tau_\ell\in\mathbb{R}$ is the path delay, $f_{D,\ell}$ is Doppler, $h_\ell$ is the complex gain, and $w(t)$ is AWGN. With raised-cosine pulse shaping, $g_0(t)$ makes $g(t)$ approximately time-limited to $[-\Delta T_s,\Delta T_s]$ [2509.25750]. After sampling and cyclic-prefix removal, the discrete-time symbol-level model is $$ \bar y_m[n]=\sum_{l=1}^{\tilde P}\hat h_l\, s_m[\langle n-\tilde \epsilon_l\rangle_N]\,e^{j2\pi v_l n}e^{j2\pi v_l mN_a}+\eta_m[n], $$ where $$ s_m[n]=\sqrt{1-P_s}\,s_{\mathrm{FMCW},m}[n]+\sqrt{P_s}\,s_{\mathrm{OFDM},m}[n]. $$ Here $\tilde\epsilon_l=\tilde\tau_l/T_s$ is normalized delay in samples, $v_l=\tilde f_{D,l}T_s$ is normalized Doppler, $\hat h_l$ absorbs the path gain and cyclic-prefix phase term, and $\langle\cdot\rangle_N$ denotes modulo-$N$ wrapping. A central feature of the model is the arbitrary-delay assumption. Because physical delays are not restricted to integer multiples of the sampling period, each physical path expands into $(2\Delta+1)$ effective discrete paths. Thus the number of effective paths is $$ \tilde P=(2\Delta+1)L. $$ These effective paths lie on an integer delay grid around the physical delay and are weighted by $g(kT_s-\alpha_p)$, where $\alpha_p$ is the fractional part of the physical delay. The paper describes this “effective paths” proliferation as fundamental: it increases sensing and channel-estimation complexity and creates clustered responses around each true physical path. FCCR is designed explicitly for this nonideal regime rather than for an integer-delay abstraction. ## 3. Cyclostationary principle and cyclic correlation mechanism FCCR is based on cyclostationary analysis. For a process $x(t)$, the cyclic correlation function at cycle frequency $\alpha$ is $$ R_x^\alpha(\tau)=\lim_{T\to\infty}\frac{1}{T}\int_{-T/2}^{T/2}x(t+\tau)x^*(t)e^{-j2\pi \alpha t}\,dt, $$ and the associated spectral correlation density is $$ S_x^\alpha(f)=\int R_x^\alpha(\tau)e^{-j2\pi f\tau}\,d\tau. $$ In Co-FMCW-OFDM, relevant cycle frequencies include $\alpha=1/T_r$ and its harmonics, induced by the FMCW repetition synchronized to OFDM symbol timing. FCCR targets the chirp cycle so that the known FMCW component produces a selectively large cyclic correlation at delays and Dopplers consistent with the chirp structure, whereas the stochastic, data-dependent OFDM component is weaker at that cycle frequency and is suppressed by cyclic correlation [2509.25750]. After cyclic-prefix removal, FCCR computes the cyclic correlation between the received symbol and the known FMCW symbol through the circular correlation $$ r[n,m]=\sum_{\ell=0}^{N-1}\bar y_m[\ell]\,s_{\mathrm{FMCW},m}^*[\langle \ell-n\rangle_N], \qquad n=0,\ldots,N-1,\; m=0,\ldots,M-1. $$ The all-zero FMCW cyclic prefix is what allows this to remain an $N$-point circular correlation without intersymbol interference contamination from the FMCW component. Peaks of $r[n,m]$ across $n$ identify delay bins and therefore bistatic range, while phase progression across slow time $m$ identifies Doppler through the term $e^{j2\pi v_l mN_a}$. This formulation differs from an explicit beat-frequency estimator. The paper states that in FCCR, fast-time cyclic correlation produces delay peaks rather than explicit $f_b$ sinusoids. A short FFT across $n$ around a detected peak can optionally be used in high-Doppler regimes to resolve a residual beat component and de-bias the range estimate, but delay is ordinarily estimated directly from the correlation peak location. ## 4. Delay-Doppler processing and estimation refinements FCCR forms a range-Doppler map by taking an FFT across slow time: $$ R[n,k]=\sum_{m=0}^{M-1} r[n,m] e^{-j2\pi mk/M_1}, \qquad k=0,\ldots,M_1-1, $$ where $M_1\ge M$ is the Doppler FFT size and is often zero-padded beyond $M$ to refine Doppler bins. The output has $N$ range bins and $M_1$ Doppler bins. Peaks in $|R[n,k]|$ correspond to effective paths, and the clusters around a dominant range index reflect the $(2\Delta+1)$ taps caused by fractional delay [2509.25750]. The primary parameter estimates are read from the peak indices: $$ \hat \tau=\hat n T_s,\qquad \hat R=\frac{c\hat \tau}{2}, $$ $$ \hat f_D=\frac{\hat k}{M_1T_{\mathrm{sym}}},\qquad \hat v=\frac{\lambda}{2}\hat f_D,\qquad \lambda=\frac{c}{f_c}. $$ The paper also states the familiar FMCW relation $$ f_b\approx \frac{2kR}{c}+f_D, $$ with discrete estimates $$ \hat R=\frac{c}{2k}(\hat f_b-\hat f_D),\qquad \hat v=\frac{\lambda}{2}\hat f_D, $$ but FCCR typically uses the direct delay estimate from correlation rather than an explicit beat-frequency estimate. Sub-bin refinement is incorporated to reduce grid-quantization bias under arbitrary delays. For range, parabolic interpolation uses adjacent magnitudes $$ A_{-1}=|R[\hat n-1,\hat k]|,\quad A_0=|R[\hat n,\hat k]|,\quad A_{+1}=|R[\hat n+1,\hat k]| $$ to compute $$ \delta_n=\frac{A_{-1}-A_{+1}}{2(A_{-1}-2A_0+A_{+1})}, \qquad \hat \tau_{\mathrm{refined}}=(\hat n+\delta_n)T_s. $$ For Doppler, $$ B_{-1}=|R[\hat n,\hat k-1]|,\quad B_0=|R[\hat n,\hat k]|,\quad B_{+1}=|R[\hat n,\hat k+1]| $$ yield $$ \delta_k=\frac{B_{-1}-B_{+1}}{2(B_{-1}-2B_0+B_{+1})}, \qquad \hat f_{D,\mathrm{ref}}=\frac{\hat k+\delta_k}{M_1T_{\mathrm{sym}}}. $$ A phase-slope refinement is also given: $$ \hat f_D=\frac{1}{2\pi N_aT_s}\,\mathrm{slope}_m\{\arg r[\hat n,m]\}. $$ According to the paper, these refinements reduce bias due to grid quantization and improve RMSE under arbitrary delays. The implementation sequence is explicit. The received samples are partitioned into $M$ symbols, the first $N_{\mathrm{cp}}$ samples of each symbol are discarded, the per-symbol FFT/IFFT circular correlation is computed, the slow-time FFT is applied per delay index or around detected ranges, and peaks are then clustered around each target to accommodate the effective taps. Window functions $W_n$ and $W_m$ may be applied to control range and Doppler sidelobes. ## 5. FFT-based implementation, complexity, and operating regimes The fast implementation replaces direct time-domain cyclic correlation by FFT-based circular correlation: $$ Y_m[\kappa]=\mathrm{FFT}\{\bar y_m[n]\},\qquad S_m[\kappa]=\mathrm{FFT}\{s_{\mathrm{FMCW},m}[n]\}, $$ $$ r[n,m]\approx \mathrm{IFFT}\{Y_m[\kappa]S_m^*[\kappa]\}. $$ Across slow time, a Doppler FFT is then applied to obtain $R[n,k]$. This reduces the per-symbol correlation cost from $O(N^2)$ to $O(N\log N)$. The overall FCCR complexity is $$ O(MN\log N + NM_1\log M_1), $$ compared with naive cyclic correlation at $O(MN^2)$. The paper further gives operation counts of $4MN\log_2N+4MN+2NM_1\log_2M_1$ real multiplications and $6MN\log_2N+2MN+4NM_1\log_2M_1$ real additions [2509.25750]. The DMD alternative is also described. DMD digitally mixes with the chirp, low-pass filters, downsamples by $D$ to $N_D=(N-2N_{\mathrm{cp}})/D$ samples per chirp, then performs fast-time and slow-time FFTs. Its complexity is $$ O(MN_D\log N_D + N_DM_1\log M_1) $$ plus $O(MN_aN_F)$ for FIR filtering. FCCR avoids the low-pass filtering and downsampling stage. The paper identifies specific conditions under which FCCR is preferred: the chirp cyclic prefix is all-zero and synchronized to the OFDM cyclic prefix, high throughput is required with large $M$, and OFDM overlay is strong so that cyclic correlation with the known chirp suppresses data-dependent interference better than DMD in noisy multi-target settings. Reported results indicate that FCCR outperforms DMD by approximately $3$ dB in range and speed RMSE while running with comparable or lower complexity. ## 6. Resolution, performance, and integration with channel estimation For a linear chirp, the range resolution is $$ \Delta R\approx \frac{c}{2B}. $$ On the discrete cyclic-correlation grid, the sample-based resolution is $$ \Delta R\approx \frac{cT_s}{2}. $$ With the paper’s setting $T_s=1/61.44\,\mathrm{MHz}$, the reported value is $\Delta R\approx 2.44\,\mathrm{m}$. Velocity resolution under coherent integration time $T_{\mathrm{int}}=M_1T_{\mathrm{sym}}$ is $$ \Delta v\approx \frac{\lambda}{2T_{\mathrm{int}}} =\frac{c}{2f_cM_1T_{\mathrm{sym}}}, $$ and with $f_c=23.6\,\mathrm{GHz}$ and the paper’s typical $M_1$, the reported value is $\Delta v\approx 0.068\,\mathrm{m/s}$ [2509.25750]. The simulation configuration uses $N=4096$, $N_{\mathrm{sc}}=3112$, $N_{\mathrm{cp}}=288$, $\Delta f=15\,\mathrm{kHz}$, channel bandwidth $50\,\mathrm{MHz}$, sampling $61.44\,\mathrm{MHz}$, $f_c=23.6\,\mathrm{GHz}$, QPSK and LDPC $(1944,972)$, $M=140$, $P_s=0.893$ so that FMCW power is $0.107$, and two targets with reflection powers $0$ and $-6$ dB. In those simulations, FCCR is reported to be better than DMD by approximately $3$ dB in range and speed RMSE across scenarios. The speed RMSE at high SNR is reported as approximately $0.036\,\mathrm{m/s}$, described as about half the resolution. The range RMSE is reported as approximately $1.46\,\mathrm{m}$ at low Doppler and approximately $2.13\,\mathrm{m}$ at higher Doppler, and it increases from about $1.49\,\mathrm{m}$ to about $2.6\,\mathrm{m}$ as average Doppler rises from $1.5\,\mathrm{kHz}$ to $7.5\,\mathrm{kHz}$. The reported operating behavior is correspondingly structured. OFDM overlay contaminates sensing in decision-data-dependent schemes, whereas FCCR suppresses OFDM interference by cyclic use of the known chirp; coordinated zero-CP FMCW further reduces mutual interference. Arbitrary delays produce effective-path clusters and raise sidelobes and variance in low SNR, but FCCR can detect the clusters and then use sub-bin refinement to reduce bias. In multi-target scenarios, windowing and peak grouping support cluster de-overlap, and the paper states that ghost peaks due to OFDM pilot periodicity are avoided in Co-FMCW-OFDM. At high SNR and low Doppler, FCCR achieves range and velocity RMSE near half the corresponding resolution; as Doppler increases to approximately $0.36\Delta f$ in the paper’s scenario b, range RMSE and bias increase because the assumptions that decouple cyclic correlation become less accurate. FCCR is also the entry point for sensing-aided effective channel estimation. It produces estimates $\{\hat\tau_\ell,\hat f_{D,\ell}\}$ and power indicators, after which each physical path is represented as a cluster of $(2\Delta+1)$ effective paths with delays $\{\hat l_p+j\}$ and common Doppler $\hat k_p$. A reference for path $p$ is regenerated as $$ \tilde r_p[n]=\sqrt{1-P_s}\,s_{\mathrm{FMCW}}[n-\hat l_p]e^{j2\pi \hat f_{D,p}nT_s}, $$ and the channel coefficients are estimated progressively by least-squares projection with successive interference cancellation: $$ \hat h_1=\frac{\sum_n y[n]\tilde r_1^*[n]}{\sum_n |\tilde r_1[n]|^2}, \qquad \tilde y_1[n]=\hat h_1\tilde r_1[n], $$ $$ \hat h_{p+1}= \frac{\sum_n \left(y[n]-\sum_{i=1}^p \tilde y_i[n]\right)\tilde r_{p+1}^*[n]} {\sum_n |\tilde r_{p+1}[n]|^2}. $$ Under the assumption $|f_D|\ll \Delta f$, the frequency-domain channel is then reconstructed as $$ \hat H(k,m)=\sum_{p=1}^{\tilde P}\hat h_p e^{-j2\pi k\Delta f \hat\tau_p}e^{j2\pi mT_{\mathrm{sym}}\hat f_{D,p}}, $$ which yields a dense grid channel estimate without interpolation. The same estimates support interference cancellation prior to OFDM demodulation: $$ \hat r_{\mathrm{FMCW}}[n]=\sum_{p=1}^{\tilde P}\hat h_p \sqrt{1-P_s}\,s_{\mathrm{FMCW}}[n-\hat l_p]e^{j2\pi \hat f_{D,p}nT_s}, $$ $$ y_I[n]=y[n]-\hat r_{\mathrm{FMCW}}[n]. $$ The paper reports that sensing-aided channel estimation with SIC significantly reduces NMSE compared to non-SIC approaches, that Co-FMCW-OFDM achieves lower NMSE than conventional OFDM with embedded pilots because it avoids interpolation across fast time variations, and that coded BER is superior both to conventional OFDM with pilots and to OFDM-plus-FMCW baselines even when the latter assumes ideal channel availability for interference cancellation. BER improves with $M$ and is sensitive to $P_s$, with an optimal $P_s$ balancing sensing and channel-estimation SNR against communication SNR. ## 7. Synchronization, parameterization, and limitations The method is synchronization-sensitive. Time and frequency synchronization to the OFDM frame and chirp repetition are described as essential, because CFO and timing-offset errors induce phase slopes across slow time and bias in delay. The recommended processing sequence therefore includes pilot-aided synchronization and residual-CFO removal before FCCR [2509.25750]. Windowing and calibration are also integral. Suitable windows $W_n$ and $W_m$ are applied to control range and Doppler sidelobes; Kaiser and Hann windows are specifically named as balancing resolution and peak sidelobe level. Pulse-shaping and matched-filter calibration are required to characterize $\Delta$ and the effective-path weights $g(kT_s-\alpha_p)$ that govern the clustered responses under fractional delay. Parameter trade-offs are explicit. Chirp slope $k$ and bandwidth $B$ determine range resolution and susceptibility to range-Doppler coupling, which increases at high Doppler. Repetition rate $1/T_{\mathrm{sym}}$ sets Doppler ambiguity and resolution, while larger $M_1$ improves $\Delta v$ at the cost of longer coherent integration time. OFDM symbol timing and $P_s$ govern the sensing/channel-estimation versus communication trade-off. The principal limitations are also specified. Incorrect cycle-frequency selection or unsynchronized chirp repetition reduces cyclostationary gain. High $P_s$ increases leakage between OFDM and FMCW, although cyclic correlation and time-domain SIC alleviate that leakage. Large Doppler, especially when it becomes a non-negligible fraction of $\Delta f$, degrades range accuracy; the stated remedies are sub-bin refinement, short-time processing, and Doppler-compensated correlation. Dense multipath produces clustered effective paths that complicate peak association; cluster grouping and model-based fitting of the weights $g(kT_s-\alpha_p)$ are suggested as remedies. In that sense, FCCR should not be identified simply with conventional FMCW matched filtering or with a generic OFDM-assisted radar front end. It is a cyclostationary, FFT-accelerated delay-Doppler estimator tailored to a specific superposed waveform with an all-zero-CP FMCW component, and its full role in Co-FMCW-OFDM includes not only sensing but also effective-path reconstruction, channel estimation, and pre-demodulation interference cancellation.
