Abstract :
We have provided a review of some recent results on the emerging technology of MIMO radar with colocated antennas. We have shown that the waveform diversity offered by such a MIMO radar system enables significant superiority over its phased-array counterpart, including much improved parameter identifiability, direct applicability of adaptive techniques for parameter estimation, as well as superior flexibility of transmit beampattern designs. We hope that this overview of our recent results on the MIMO radar, along with the related results obtained by our colleagues, will stimulate the interest deserved by this topic in both academia and government agencies as well as industry.
