- Abstract
- In this article, to get a high-resolution radar image with distributed frequency modulated continuous waveform multiple-input-multiple-output (FMCW MIMO) radar, Bayesian matching pursuit (BMP)-based imaging methods are proposed, in which the received signals at the distributed FMCW MIMO radars are reformulated in terms of the (azimuth, range) patches in the image region of interest and the maximum a posterior (MAP) estimator that can estimate the azimuth angles and ranges of multiple targets is then derived. For a single FMCW MIMO radar, we first propose the BMP-based imaging, in which the support vector (indicating the presence of targets in the radar image patches) and the associated coefficients (the reflection coefficients of the associated targets) are iteratively updated. Because MAP estimation needs the combinatorial search over all possible candidates to find the nonzero elements in the support vector, an approximated MAP estimation method is newly proposed. In addition, by extending the BMP-based imaging for a single FMCW MIMO radar, we develop a new distributed BMP-based imaging method when multiple FMCW MIMO radars are spatially distributed. Through the simulation, we confirm that the proposed BMP-based radar imaging methods outperform the conventional backprojection method or the orthogonal matching pursuit-based method with slightly increased computational complexity.
