Least Squares Calibration of MIMO Radars with Collocated Arrays

The calibration of a collocated MIMO radar is addressed by means of independent calibration of transmit and receive arrays. The solutions for both arrays' elements gain and phase terms only and the full coupling matrix estimation are presented. The proposed solution significantly improves over the conventional calibration of the virtual array...

A 77-GHz FMCW MIMO Radar Employing a Non-Uniform 2D Antenna Array and Substrate Integrated Waveguides

In state-of-the-art frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems, antennas are usually designed based on microstrip technology. They are arranged in uniform arrays such that the synthesized virtual array maximizes the angular resolution. This paper presents the design of a 77-GHz FMCW MIMO...
