A New Method for Angle Estimation in MIMO Radar with Blind Source Separation

Article Preview

Abstract:

A joint direction of departures (DODs) and direction of arrivals (DOAs) estimation for bistatic MIMO radar with an algebraic method for blind source separation (BSS) is presented. The proposed method has the relative advantage of simplicity. The DODs and DOAs of targets can be solved in closed-form and paired automatically. Moreover, BSS techniques enable this approach to recover the source signals from the mixed signals. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the method.
