    Optimal signals for MIMO RADAR in the presence of clutter

    , Article 2008 2nd International Conference on Signals, Circuits and Systems, SCS 2008, Nabeul, 7 November 2008 through 9 November 2008 ; January , 2008 ; 9781424426287 (ISBN) Naghibi, T ; Behnia, F ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Waveform design for Target identification and classification in MIMO radar systems has been studied in several recent works. While the previous works considered signal independent noise and found optimal signals, here we extend the results to the case where clutter is also present and then we will find the optimum waveform for MMSE estimator. Choosing optimal waveform for MMSE estimator leads to the Semidefinite programming (SDP) problem, a convex optimization problem which can be efficiently solved through numerical methods. Explicit solution is developed for this SDP problem in two cases .In the first case, target and clutter covariance matrices are jointly diagonalizable and in the second... 

    Application of Sparse Modeling to MIMO Radars

    Abstract
    Due to multiple transmit-receive channels, the signal model in a MIMO radar system is usually described by high dimensional data structures. However, the desired target space (e.g. range-azimuth domain) which shall be estimated, is mainly sparse (the number of existing targets is usually small). This observation has promoted the use of sparse recovery methods in multi-target detection and estimation in such radar systems which led to introducing the concept of compressive sensing (CS) based MIMO radars. Successful implementation of CS techniques for recovery of radar scenes (for target detection/estimation) from the received noisy measurements strongly entails that the associated sensing... 

    MIMO radar waveform design in the presence of clutter

    , Article IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems ; Volume 47, Issue 2 , 2011 , Pages 770-781 ; 00189251 (ISSN) Naghibi, T ; Behnia, F ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Waveform design for target identification and classification in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems has been studied in several recent works. In previous works, optimal signals for an estimation algorithm are found assuming that only signal- independent noise exists. This work extends previous research by studying the case where clutter is also present. We develop a procedure to design the optimal waveform which minimizes estimation error at the output of the minimum mean squared error (MMSE) estimators in two scenarios. In the first one different transmit antennas see uncorrelated aspects of the target, and we consider the correlated target aspects in the second one....
