  3. Abstract:
  4. This letter investigates the problem of threedimensional (3-D) target localization in multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) radars with distributed antennas, using hybrid timedelay (TD) and angle of arrival (AOA) measurements. We propose a closed-form positioning method based on weighted least squares (WLS) estimation. The proposed estimator is shown theoretically to achieve the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) under mild noise conditions. Numerical simulations also verify the theoretical developments. IEEE
