            Abstract : 
Mono-pulse angle measurement technology is being widely used for its simple structure and high accuracy. In this paper, we propose a mono-pulse phase comparison angle measurement algorithm applied to virtual array transformed equivalently from MIMO radar. Based on the principle of improving the accuracy of angle measurement, we adopt amplitude weighting to optimize this algorithm that we achieve higher accuracy compared with mono-pulse phase comparison angle measurement algorithm applied to actual array of MIMO radar. Simulation results verify the validity of this algorithm.
