Abstract :
An iterative ESPRIT-like algorithm is devised for direction-of-departure (DOD) and direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation in multiple-input multiple-output radar. Our proposal can handle identical DODs and DOAs, and provides autopairing of the angle parameters. Furthermore, it is proved that the multiple signal classification methodology cannot identify (MN - 1) targets, where M and N are the element numbers in the transmit and receive antennas, respectively. Simulation results are included to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
