contents Spectrum sharing is a critical strategy for meeting escalating user demands via commercial wireless services, yet its effective regulation and technological enablement, particularly concerning coexistence with incumbent systems, remain significant challenges. Federal organizations have established regulatory frameworks to manage shared commercial use alongside mission-critical operations, such as military communications. This paper investigates the potential of machine learning (ML)-based approaches to enhance spectrum sharing capabilities within the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) band, specifically focusing on the coexistence of commercial signals (e.g., 5G) and military radar systems. We demonstrate that ML techniques can potentially extend the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)-recommended signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) boundaries by improving radar detection and waveform identification in high-interference environments. Through rigorous evaluation using both synthetic and real-world signals, our findings indicate that proposed ML models, utilizing In-phase/Quadrature (IQ) data and spectrograms, can achieve the FCC-recommended $99\%$ radar detection accuracy even when subjected to high interference from 5G signals upto -5dB SINR, exceeding the required limits of $20$ SINR. Our experimental studies distinguish this work from the state-of-the-art by significantly extending the SINR limit for $99\%$ radar detection accuracy from approximately $12$ dB down to $-5$ dB. Subsequent to detection, we further apply ML to analyze and identify radar waveforms. The proposed models also demonstrate the capability to classify six distinct radar waveform types with $93\%$ accuracy.
