We proposed a dual smoothing superresolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for multitarget detection with two-channel frequency modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar. For the conventional superresolution FMCW radar, the number of detectable targets for DOA estimation is limited by the number of RX antenna arrays. To enable DOA estimation for more targets than the number of receiving channels, we propose exploiting a dual shift invariant structure of dual smoothed matrix. We implemented two-channel FMCW radar and tested the performance of the proposed method.
