Abstract: Orthogonal time–frequency space (OTFS) is a new modulation technique proposed in recent years for high Doppler wireless scenes. To solve the parameter estimation problem of the OTFS-integrated radar and communications system, we propose a parameter estimation method based on sparse reconstruction preprocessing to reduce the computational effort of the traditional weighted subspace fitting (WSF) algorithm. First, an OTFS-integrated echo signal model is constructed. Then, the echo signal is transformed to the time domain to separate the target angle from the range, and the range and angle of the detected target are coarsely estimated by using the sparse reconstruction algorithm. Finally, the WSF algorithm is used to refine the search with the coarse estimate at the center to obtain an accurate estimate. The simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed parameter estimation algorithm.
