The work presented in this paper is about implementing a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) positioning radar and a sparse spectrum fitting (SpSF) algorithm for range and angular measurements. First, we designed a coherent FMCW MIMO radar system working in the S-band with low power consumption that consists of four transmitter and four receiver antennas and has the ability to extend its virtual aperture; thus, this system can achieve a higher resolution than conventional phased array radars. Then, the SpSF algorithm was designed for estimating the distance and angle of the targets in the FMCW MIMO radar. Due to the fact that the SpSF algorithm can exploit the spatial sparsity diversity of a signal, the SpSF algorithm that is applied in the designed MIMO radar system can achieve a better estimation performance than the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) and Capon algorithms, especially in the context of small snapshots and low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). The simulated and experimental results are used to prove the effectiveness of the designed MIMO radar and the superior performance of the algorithm.

Abstract. In this contribution, the design of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar system in 77–81 GHz range with 18 transmitting antennas and 24 receiving antennas for measuring the height profile of bulk solids in silos, is presented and discussed. The antenna array topologies are optimized by utilizing space filling fractals in order to approximate a circular shaped antenna array on a hexagonal grid. The proposed MIMO radar system achieves an angular resolution of 3.1∘ for a maximum scanning angle of ±45∘ and a side lobe suppression of 12.6 dB. The performance of the system has been evaluated by test measurements on a sand heap, showing an improved measurement accuracy compared to conventional radar level systems.

The problem of target localization and parameter estimation in wideband bistatic Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar system is considered. In this paper, we use a novel approach to estimate Doppler stretch and time delay in fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) domain. We also develop two sub-array models to accurately estimate the direction-of-departure (DOD) and the direction-of-arrival (DOA). Furthermore, the Cramér-Rao bound for target parameter estimation is derived and computed in closed form. Parameter estimation performances are evaluated and studied theoretically and via simulations

The existing positioning methods for the automatic guided vehicle (AGV) in the port can not achieve high location precision, Therefore, a novel multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna radar positioning scheme is proposed in this paper. The positioning problem for AGV is considered, and the joint estimation problem for direction of departure (DoD) and direction of arrival (DoA) is addressed in the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar system. With the radar detect the transponder and estimate the DoA/DoD, the relative location between the transponder and the AGV can be obtained. The corresponding Cramér–Rao lower bounds (CRLBs) for the target parameters are also derived theoretically. Finally, we compare the positioning accuracy of the traditional global position system (GPS) with the proposed MIMO radar system. Simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve better performance than the traditional GPS.
