ABSTRACT:
Certain embodiments provide a network waveform system that can include multiple radars disposed at different geographical positions within an environment. The multiple radars may be configured to transmit a network waveform. The network waveform may include multiple radar waveforms. Each radar waveform of the multiple waveforms may be transmitted by a specific radar of the multiple radars. The system can also include a computer system coupled with the multiple radars that can include a processor and a memory. The memory may be configured to store information including data received from the multiple radars, data processed by the processor, and processing code executable by the processor. The processing code may include instructions to receive output data from the multiple radars resulting from the transmitted network waveform instructions to jointly process the output data from the multiple radars to determine a measurement of the environment based on the network waveform.
