A new detection method for MIMO radar using hidden Markov model

摘要

MIMO radar is a new radar technique developed recently. It can achieve better detection performance than conventional phased radar. Based on the scattering statistic of clutter and man-made target, we propose that hidden Markov models (HMM) can be used to model the clutter and target signals, and that the HMMs can be used to detect target. Simulation results verify its efficiency.
