Comparison of Local and Non-Local Methods in Covariance Matrix Estimation by Using Multi-baseline SAR Interferometry and Height Extraction for Principal Components with Maximum Likelihood Approach
By today, the technology of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry (InSAR) has been largely exploited in digital elevation model (DEM) generation and deformation mapping. Conventional InSAR technique exploits two SAR images acquired from slightly different angles, in which the information of elevation and deformation can be captured through processing of the phase difference of the image...
متن کاملExploiting Non Circularity for Angle Estimation in Bistatic MIMO Radar Systems
The traditional second order statistics approach of using only the hermitian covariance for non circular signals, does not take advantage of the information contained in the complementary covariance of these signals. Radar systems often use non circular signals such as Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) signals. Their noncicular property can be exploited together with the dual centrosymmetry of t...
متن کاملA Canonical Framework for Suboptimum Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP), Including Covariance-Matrix Estimation and Range-Dependence Compensation
We address the problem of detecting slow moving targets from a moving radar system using spacetime adaptive processing (STAP) techniques. Optimum interference rejection requires the estimation and the inversion of an interference-plus-noise covariance matrix. To reduce the number of samples involved in the estimation and the computational cost inherent to the inversion, many suboptimum STAP tec...
متن کامل2D Angle and Doppler Frequency Estimation in MIMO Radar
A novel algorithm for the joint estimation of the Direction Of Departure (DOD)-Direction Of Arrival (DOA) and Doppler frequency for bistatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar is proposed. The proposed algorithm uses the rotational factor produced by the time delay of sampling to construct an angle matrix by fully utilizing the properties of the auto-covariance and cross-covariance mat...
متن کاملReal-Valued Covariance Vector Sparsity-Inducing DOA Estimation for Monostatic MIMO Radar
In this paper, a real-valued covariance vector sparsity-inducing method for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation is proposed in monostatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar. Exploiting the special configuration of monostatic MIMO radar, low-dimensional real-valued received data can be obtained by using the reduced-dimensional transformation and unitary transformation technique. Then,...
