Distributed Detection and Imaging in MIMO Radar Network Based on Averaging Consensus
Anton A. Zabolotsky, Evgeny A. Mavrychev · 2018
In this paper, we consider distributed signal processing in a MIMO radar network. We suppose that transmitting and receiving nodes of MIMO radar are distributed in a large-scale area. In this network the neighboring receiving nodes communicate with each other to exchange data. A fully distributed algorithm for detection and imaging is proposed. This algorithm is based on the averaging consensus approach. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is confirmed by numerical examples. It is compared to the centralized solution in a fusion center, the local solution in an individual receiving node and the proposed distributed algorithm.
