There's a whole host of radar research using OFDM/ Wifi (I wrote a paper on the topic a while back where i implemented it with some software defined radios).
The best paper on the topic is Martin Brauns[1]. It's insanely comprehensive and easy to digest.

Doesn't the thesis assume you are the one sending out the OFDM signal, while the OP is about a passive radar thing? Maybe I got one of those mixed up.
