This paper investigates the possibility of transmitting waveforms designed to enable spectral coexistence between radar and other Radio Frequency (RF) wireless systems via a Software Defined Radar (SDR). The design technique tested in this study nominally enables the placement of notches in the spectrum of the synthesized probing radar signal. Their widths and depths are set during the design stage so as to accounting for the interference into each shared frequency interval, allowing for spectral coexistence. At the assessment stage, the synthesized signal is used with the PARSAX radar system, an SDR capable of operating in the S frequency band. The analysis first focuses on studying the compliance of the signal generated by the PARSAX radar with its theoretical counterpart. Subsequently, open-air experiments are conducted in the presence of stationary and moving targets. The results show that the spectral characteristics of the probing radar signal adhere well to the theoretical spectral mask, and prove the system ability to detect both stationary and moving targets.
