Convoy parameter estimation with array radar
نویسنده
چکیده
The problem of recognition of extended targets such as convoys of ground vehicles by radar is discussed. The paper focuses on target recognition during the search and track radar mode, i.e., using a real aperture mode. Radar with multi-channel array antenna is assumed. Such radar produces multi-channel echo data and offers the potential of space and space-time signal processing. Generalised spatial power estimators are used to estimate the cross-range length component of a convoy. If the radar is in motion space-time techniques have to be applied.

One of the important issues in many of array systems such as Radar, Sonar, Mobile, and satellite telecommunications is the estimation of DOA of narrowband received signal. CRB is very important in evaluation of parameter estimation. CRB is the lower bound estimation error variance for any unbiased estimation. In this paper, the array antenna with equal distance arrays is extended in two separat...

متن کاملMIMO Radar: Diversity Means Superiority
A MIMO (multi-input multi-output) radar system, unlike a standard phased-array radar, can transmit via its antennas multiple probing signals that may be correlated or uncorrelated with each other. We provide herein an overview of our recent result, showing that this waveform diversity enables the MIMO radar superiority in several fundamental aspects, including: 1) significantly improved paramet...

متن کاملA Range-Doppler-Angle Estimation Method for Passive Bistatic Radar
In this paper, an effective target detection and localization method is proposed for a passive bistatic radar (PBR) system. The PBR system consists of a commercial FM radio station, which is a noncooperative illuminator of opportunity (IO), referred to as the transmitter antenna and multiple surveillance antennas that form an antenna array, e.g., uniform linear array (ULA). Unlike other literat...
