In thi s talk\, we present a general spectral coexistence scenario\, wherein the channels and transmit signals of both radar and communications systems are unknown at the receiver. In this dual-blind deconvolution (DBD) problem\, a common receiver admits a multi-carrier wireless communications signal t hat is overlaid with the radar signal reflected off multiple targets. The communications and radar channels are represented by continuous-valued ran ge-time and Doppler velocities of multiple transmission paths and multiple targets. We exploit the sparsity of both channels to solve the highly ill -posed DBD problem by casting it into a sum of multivariate atomic norms ( SoMAN) minimization. We devise a semidefinite program to estimate the unkn own target and communications parameters using the theories of positive-hy peroctant trigonometric polynomials (PhTP). Our theoretical analyses show that the minimum number of samples required for perfect recovery scale log arithmically with the maximum of the radar targets and communications path s rather than their sum. We show that our SoMAN method and PhTP formulatio ns are also applicable to more general scenarios such as unsynchronized tr ansmission\, the presence of noise\, and multiple emitters. We also examin e this problem using extremal functions from the Beurling-Selberg interpol ation theory. Toward the end of the talk\, we will briefly touch upon our research on other ISAC topics.\n\nBios\nMischa Dohler is now VP of Emergin g Technologies at Ericsson Inc. in Silicon Valley\, work- ing on cutting-e dge topics of 6G\, Metaverse\, XR\, Quantum\, and Blockchain.
