Abstract

Conceptually, 2-dimentional(2D) imaging of radar target is a problem of 2D spatial spectrum filling of the target. Accordingly, MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) radar real-time imaging technology is proposed in this paper. Firstly, MIMO radar 2D imaging model is established based on electromagnetic scattering integral equation. Secondly, the spatial sampling ability is analyzed from the concept of spatial convolution of the antenna elements. Thirdly, MIMO radar 2 D real-time imaging procedure is presented. Simulation results show the effectiveness of MIMO radar real-time imaging algorithm.
