Abstract

Abstract

A joint real-valued beamspace-based method for angle estimation in bistatic Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar is proposed. Instead of using the traditional Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) beamspace filter, the proposed beamspace filter is designed through convex optimization, which can flexibly control the bandwidth and limit the sidelobe level. Based on this property, the mainlobe-to-sidelobe ratio of the proposed beamspace filter can be greatly improved, which results in the improved estimation performance. More importantly, the structure of the proposed beamspace matrix can be properly designed, which is indispensable in constructing the real-valued signal model. Finally, the mapping relationship to compensate the interpolation error is established. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
