We consider a colocated MIMO radar scenario, in which the receive antennas forward their measurements to a fusion center. Based on the received data, the fusion center formulates a matrix which is then used for target parameter estimation. When the receive antennas sample the target returns at Nyquist rate, and assuming that there are more receive antennas than targets, the data matrix at the fusion center is low-rank. When each receive antenna sends to the fusion center only a small number of samples, along with the sample index, the receive data matrix has missing elements, corresponding to the samples that were not forwarded. Under certain conditions, matrix completion techniques can be applied to recover the full receive data matrix, which can then be used in conjunction with array processing techniques, e.g., MUSIC, to obtain target information. Numerical results indicate that good target recovery can be achieved with occupancy of the receive data matrix as low as 50%.

In a typical MIMO radar scenario, transmit nodes transmit orthogonal waveforms, while each receive node performs matched filtering with the known set of transmit waveforms, and forwards the results to the fusion center. Based on the data it receives from multiple antennas, the fusion center formulates a matrix, which, in conjunction with standard array processing schemes, such as MUSIC, leads to target detection and parameter estimation. In MIMO radars with compressive sensing (MIMO-CS), the data matrix is formulated by each receive node forwarding a small number of compressively obtained samples. In this paper, it is shown that under certain conditions, in both sampling cases, the data matrix at the fusion center is low-rank, and thus can be recovered based on knowledge of a small subset of its entries via matrix completion (MC) techniques. Leveraging the low-rank property of that matrix, we propose a new MIMO radar approach, termed, MIMO-MC radar, in which each receive node either performs matched filtering with a small number of randomly selected dictionary waveforms or obtains sub-Nyquist samples of the received signal at random sampling instants, and forwards the results to a fusion center. Based on the received samples, and with knowledge of the sampling scheme, the fusion center partially fills the data matrix and subsequently applies MC techniques to estimate the full matrix. MIMO-MC radars share the advantages of the recently proposed MIMO-CS radars, i.e., high resolution with reduced amounts of data, but unlike MIMO-CS radars do not require grid discretization. The MIMO-MC radar concept is illustrated through a linear uniform array configuration, and its target estimation performance is demonstrated via simulations.
This paper presents an analysis of target localization accuracy, attainable by the use of MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) radar systems, configured with multiple transmit and receive sensors, widely distributed over a given area. The Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) for target localization accuracy is developed for both coherent and non-coherent processing. Coherent processing requires a common phase reference for all transmit and receive sensors. The CRLB is shown to be inversely proportional to the signal effective bandwidth in the non-coherent case, but is approximately inversely proportional to the carrier frequency in the coherent case. We further prove that optimization over the sensors positions lowers the CRLB by a factor equal to the product of the number of transmitting and receiving sensors. The best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) is derived for the MIMO target localization problem. The BLUEs utility is in providing a closed form localization estimate that facilitates the analysis of the relations between sensors locations, target location, and localization accuracy. Geometric dilution of precision (GDOP) contours are used to map the relative performance accuracy for a given layout of radars over a given geographic area.
This paper proposes compressed domain signal processing (CSP) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar, a MIMO radar approach that achieves substantial sample complexity reduction by exploiting the idea of CSP. CSP MIMO radar involves two levels of data compression followed by target detection at the compressed domain. First, compressive sensing is applied at the receive antennas, followed by a Capon beamformer which is designed to suppress clutter. Exploiting the sparse nature of the beamformer output, a second compression is applied to the filtered data. Target detection is subsequently conducted by formulating and solving a hypothesis testing problem at each grid point of the discretized angle space. The proposed approach enables an 8-fold reduction of the sample complexity in some settings as compared to a conventional compressed sensing (CS) MIMO radar thus enabling faster target detection. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the proposed detector are provided. Simulation results show that the proposed approach outperforms recovery-based compressed sensing algorithms.
In this paper, we propose a two-dimensional (2D) joint transmit array interpolation and beamspace design for planar array mono-static multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation via tensor modeling. Our underlying idea is to map the transmit array to a desired array and suppress the transmit power outside the spatial sector of interest. In doing so, the signal-tonoise ratio is improved at the receive array. Then, we fold the received data along each dimension into a tensorial structure and apply tensor-based methods to obtain DOA estimates. In addition, we derive a close-form expression for DOA estimation bias caused by interpolation errors and argue for using a specially designed look-up table to compensate the bias. The corresponding Cramer-Rao Bound (CRB) is also derived. Simulation results are provided to show the performance of the proposed method and compare its performance to CRB.
We propose a novel pilot structure for covariance matrix estimation in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in which each user transmits two pilot sequences, with the second pilot sequence multiplied by a random phase-shift. The covariance matrix of a particular user is obtained by computing the sample cross-correlation of the channel estimates obtained from the two pilot sequences. This approach relaxes the requirement that all the users transmit their uplink pilots over the same set of symbols. We derive expressions for the achievable rate and the mean-squared error of the covariance matrix estimate when the proposed method is used with staggered pilots. The performance of the proposed method is compared with existing methods through simulations.
