Abstract
In this paper we examine the effects of K-distributed clutter on the performance of a spatial MIMO radar system. Multistatic systems provide a set of received data containing more information than in the mono/bistatic case. This increased quantity of information can be exploited to achieve improved detection also in severe clutter conditions. The processing of the received echoes has to take into account the extra information provided and the environment that the radars are in. Thus here we propose two different ways for signal processing and moreover we report their performance
