Beamforming in MIMO Radar using Coprime Array
Minerva Priyadarsini, Srinivasarao Chintagunta · 2018
This paper proposes a new method of beamforming for colocated MIMO radar. The method firstly constructs the coprime arrays in MIMO radar and then exploits the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) to maximize the power in the desired direction and minimize in other directions. Simulation results are presented to signify the beampattern and the signal to interference plus noise ratio performance of the proposed method. These performance characteristics are also compared with the earlier methods such as phased array radar, MIMO radar.
