MIMO Radar : Theory and Application

"This comprehensive new resource provides in-depth and timely coverage of the underpinnings and latest advances of MIMO radar. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to MIMO radar and demonstrates it's utility in real-world applications, then culminates with the latest advances in optimal and adaptive MIMO radar for enhanced detection and target ID in challenging environments. Signal processing prerequisites are explained, including radar signals, orthogonal waveforms, matched filtering, multi-channel beam forming, and Doppler processing. This book discusses MIMO radar signal model, antenna properties, system modeling and waveform alternatives. MIMO implantation challenges are covered, including computational complexity, adaptive clutter mitigation, calibration and equalization, and hardware constraints. Applications for GMTI radar, OTH radar, maritime radar, and automotive radar are explained. The book offers an introduction to optimum MIMO radar and includes details about detection, clutter, and target ID. Insight into adaptive MIMO radar and MIMO channel estimation is presented and techniques and illustrative examples are given. Readers find exclusive flight testing data from DARPA. The breadth of coverage in this all-inclusive resource makes it suitable for both practicing engineers and advanced researchers. The book concludes with discussions on areas for future research."-- Provided by publisher Artech House Radar Series MIMO Radar: Theory and Application 2 Contents 6 Preface 10 1 Introduction 12 References 19 2 Signal Processing Prerequisites 20 2.1 Radar Signals and Orthogonal Waveforms 21 2.2 Matched Filtering 22 2.3 Multichannel Beamforming 24 2.4 Doppler Processing 29 References 31 3 Introduction to MIMO Radar 32 3.1 MIMO Radar Signal Model 33 3.2 Unique MIMO Antenna Properties 38 3.3 MIMO Radar System Modeling 43 3.4 MIMO Waveform Alternatives 46 3.5 MIMO Signal Processing 50 3.6 Site-Specific Simulation Example 54 3.7 MIMO Implementation Issues and Challenges 60 3.7.1 Computational Complexity 60 3.7.2 Adaptive Clutter Mitigation Challenges 66 3.7.3 Calibration and Equalization Issues 68 3.7.4 Hardware Challenges and Constraints 73 References 77 Selected Bibliography 80 4 MIMO Radar Applications 82 4.1 GMTI Radar Introduction 83 4.2 Low-Cost GMTI MIMO Radar 89 4.3 Maritime Radar Mode 118 4.4 OTH Radar 120 4.5 Automotive Radar 121 References 123 Selected Bibliography 124 5 Introduction to Optimum MIMO Radar 126 5.1 Theory of Optimum MIMO Radar for Detection 127 5.2 Optimum MIMO Radar in Clutter 136 5.3 Optimum MIMO Radar for Target ID 142 References 148 6 Adaptive MIMO Radar and MIMO Channel Estimation 150 6.1 Introduction to Adaptive MIMO Radar 150 6.2 MIMO Channel Estimation Techniques 153 6.3 Application to Large Clutter Discrete Mitigation 158 6.4 Summary 166 References 167 7 Advanced MIMO Analysis Techniques 170 7.1 Site-Specific Simulation Background 171 7.2 Adaptive Radar Simulation Results 179 7.3 Site-Specific Clutter Variability and Statistics 180 7.4 Optimal Waveform Analysis 191 7.5 Optimal MIMO Radar Analysis 196 References 207 Selected Bibliography 213 8 Summary and Future Work 216 Reference 218 About the Authors 220 Index 222 Radar;,MIMO,radar;,Radar,theory;,Radar,application;,Artech,House;,978-1-63081-342-0 Radar,MIMO radar,Radar theory,Radar application,Artech House,978-1-63081-342-0 Intro MIMO Radar: Theory and Application Contents Preface 1 Introduction References 2 Signal Processing Prerequisites 2.1 Radar Signals and Orthogonal Waveforms 2.2 Matched Filtering 2.3 Multichannel Beamforming 2.4 Doppler Processing References 3 Introduction to MIMO Radar 3.1 MIMO Radar Signal Model 3.2 Unique MIMO Antenna Properties 3.3 MIMO Radar System Modeling 3.4 MIMO Waveform Alternatives 3.5 MIMO Signal Processing 3.6 Site-Specific Simulation Example 3.7 MIMO Implementation Issues and Challenges 3.7.1 Computational Complexity 3.7.2 Adaptive Clutter Mitigation Challenges3.7.3 Calibration and Equalization Issues 3.7.4 Hardware Challenges and Constraints References Selected Bibliography 4 MIMO Radar Applications 4.1 GMTI Radar Introduction 4.2 Low-Cost GMTI MIMO Radar 4.3 Maritime Radar Mode 4.4 OTH Radar 4.5 Automotive Radar References Selected Bibliography 5 Introduction to Optimum MIMO Radar 5.1 Theory of Optimum MIMO Radar for Detection 5.2 Optimum MIMO Radar in Clutter 5.3 Optimum MIMO Radar for Target ID References 6 Adaptive MIMO Radar and MIMO Channel Estimation 6.1 Introduction to Adaptive MIMO Radar6.2 MIMO Channel Estimation Techniques 6.3 Application to Large Clutter Discrete Mitigation 6.4 Summary References 7 Advanced MIMO Analysis Techniques 7.1 Site-Specific Simulation Background 7.2 Adaptive Radar Simulation Results 7.3 Site-Specific Clutter Variability and Statistics 7.4 Optimal Waveform Analysis 7.5 Optimal MIMO Radar Analysis References Selected Bibliography 8 Summary and Future Work Reference About the Authors Index This book covers the latest advances in optimal and adaptive MIMO radar for enhanced detection and target ID in challenging environments and demonstrates its utility in real-world applications.
