Self-Supervised Learning for Enhancing Angular Resolution in Automotive MIMO Radars

A novel framework to enhance the angular resolution of automotive radars is proposed. An approach to enlarge the antenna aperture using artificial neural networks is developed using a self-supervised learning scheme. Data from a high angular resolution radar, i.e., a radar with a large antenna aperture, is used to train a deep neural network...

Vehicular Motion-based DOA Estimation with a Limited Amount of Snapshots for Automotive MIMO Radar

The problem of high-resolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation based on a limited amount of snapshots in automotive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar has been studied. The number of snapshots is restricted to minimize target spread/migration in range and/or Doppler domains. A computationally efficient approach for side-looking...

A Novel Approach to Unambiguous Doppler Beam sharpening for Forward-looking MIMO Radar

The ambiguity problem of targets in Doppler beam sharpening (DBS) with forward-looking radar is considered. While DBS is proposed earlier to improve the angular resolution of the radar while keeping the antenna aperture size limited, such a solution suffers from ambiguities in the case of targets positioned symmetrically with respect to the...
