  • Abstract
    MIMO radar with orthogonal signal transmission is equivalent to form virtual sensors at the receiver. The virtual sensors can be used to form narrower beams with lower sidelobes. The pattern of MIMO radar can be decomposed into transmit pattern and receive pattern by mathematical analysis. In this paper, we apply conventional beamforming and MVDR beamforming algorithms to MIMO radar. At last, the comparisions of two algorithms for phased-array radar and MIMO radar are given.
