Abstract :
We develop a signal model for MIMO radar which takes into account delay and Doppler mismatch due to the fact that scatterers do not generally lie in the center of delay/Doppler resolution cells, as is commonly assumed in the literature on this subject. This mismatch may cause a distortion of the array manifold thus impacting the results of array processing functions such as beamforming, null steering, and direction finding.
