Joint Transmitter–Receiver Optimization in Multitarget MIMO Radar

MIMO Radar Aperture Optimization

In a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) radar system, two or more transmitters emit independent waveforms, with the resulting reflections received by an array of receivers. Recently, MIMO radar has become a subject of great interest. In part, this interest is due to the potential for MIMO techniques to reduce radar weight and cost, while maintaining performance (as compared with conventiona...

Multitarget Identification and Localization Using Bistatic MIMO Radar Systems

A scheme for multitarget identification and localization using bistatic MIMO radar systems is proposed. Multitarget can be distinguished by Capon method, as well as the targets angles with respect to transmitter and receiver can be synthesized using the received signals. Thus, the locations of the multiple targets are obtained and spatial synchronization problem in traditional bistatic radars i...

Multitarget Detection and Localization Method for Bistatic Mimo Radar

In this paper, we present a scheme of detection and localization of multiple targets in the same range cell using two transmitters bistatic MIMO radar. The signal model is constructed by means of the rotational factor produced by transmiter. Based on the signal model, canonical correlation test (CCT) method is extended directly to determine the number of targets. Furthermore, a close form solut...

Corrections to "Multitarget Identification and Localization Using Bistatic MIMO Radar Systems"

Firstly, the second term v of (4) in [1] is zero-mean complex Gaussian with v∼N c (0, σ 2 v I NM), where σ v = (1/ √ L)σ w. Also, the σ 2 w in (8) should be changed to σ 2 v. Secondly, if we have Q-independent pulses, the Fisher information matrix in (9) should be [2] J(ξ) = Qtr R −1 η (ξ) ∂R η (ξ) ∂ξ R −1 η (ξ) ∂R η (ξ) ∂ξ. (1) The corresponding formulas of CRB in the appendix should be revise...
