Adaptive Target Detection in Clutter Using MIMO Radar

摘要

In this paper the problem of target detection using coherent pulse terrain was considered for MIMO radars. We have formulated this problem as a hypothesis test. Using the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) two adaptive decision schemes have been developed for clutter with unknown statistics. The performance of the proposed detectors have been evaluated using Monte-Carlo simulations. The results show the superiority of the MIMO radars with temporal coherent processing over the conventional phased arrays.
