Both economic incentives and policy trends motivate the study of spectrum sharing between radar and wireless communications as a means to mitigate spectrum scarcity. This paper proposes a novel, temporal signal processing algorithm for a radar to mitigate interference from cyclostationary, linearly modulated digital communications (LMDC) interference such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or code division multiple access (CDMA). The proposed algorithm has the form of a novel whitening filter followed by a matched filter, and as such it optimizes the statistical deflection among the class of all linear detection filters. The derived cyclostationary whitening filter has equivalent mathematical representations as: 1) the form of a multiuser detector followed by an interference canceler, and 2) a frequency-shift (FRESH) filter. Performance results indicate that the derived cyclostationary whitener can produce signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) improvements ranging from negligible to up to $\text{20 dB}$ for the parameters used in this study. The cyclostationary whitener leads to the greatest SINR improvements when the interference-plus-noise is dominated by only a few LMDC signals, such as might occur in a near-far scenario.
