| contents | This paper proposes a novel low probability of intercept (LPI) waveform design approach for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based integrated sensing and communication systems by introducing artificial phase and Doppler shifts. These controlled impairments, unknown to eavesdroppers, effectively disrupt passive radar processing and intercept attempts. At legitimate receivers, they can be fully compensated, so that standard OFDM communication and sensing performance are preserved. To support the effectiveness of the proposed LPI waveform design for OFDM-based ISAC, measurement results with 1 GHz bandwidth at 27 GHz are presented considering different impairment introduction approaches, all with no impact on cooperative system performance, and compensation capabilities at the eavesdropper. |
