The next chapter of the report gives a detailed explanation of the hardware and software architectures on which the thesis implementation is carried out. The following chapter of the report focuses on the main adopted implementation to embed information bits and all the underlying methodologies related to it. Finally, the results of this thesis work are diversified into obtaining real-time 2D fast Fourier transform (FFT) range/doppler spectrum and beat signals, to perform reconstruction of the message embedded in the FMCW waveform and to validate the correctness of the phase coding.
