Abstract:
In this paper, we address the problem of Direction of Departure (DOD) and Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation for Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) radar. The work presented studies the effect of Radar Cross Section (RCS), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and speed of targets on the performance of the MIMO radar. Analysis can be used to find the direction of multiple types of targets such as CAPON, MUSIC and parallel factor (PARAFAC). To differentiate the meaning of targets, varying targets of different types, such as bicycle, bird, man, ship and jet have been considered. After defining suitable values for each type of target in 2D space, the performance of each type is discussed by using the MATLAB program.
