Abstract :
This paper presents a localization method of multiple living-bodies suitable for multi-path environments. The time-variant Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) channel is measured and the bistatic MIMO radar estimates multiple target locations from Fourier-transformed channel information. Measurements are carried out in an indoor environment, and it is shown the proposed method can estimate multiple target locations with fairly good accuracy.
