摘要
By using the banded symmetric and Toeplitz matrix model for the mutual coupling of uniformly linear array(ULA), a subspace-based target localization and mutual coupling self-calibration method is proposed for the bistatic MIMO radar. The new algorithm can "decouple" the 2-dimensional (2-D) angles and mutual coupling parameters, and provide a similar estimated performance to 2-D MUSIC without the knowledge of the sensor mutual coupling matrix. At the same time, an accurate estimate of mutual coupling matrix based on the estimated 2-D angles can also be achieved simultaneously for self-calibration of the bistatic MIMO radar. The 2-D angles estimation and mutual coupling estimation can be completed just using one-dimensional search or polynomial rooting, with no high-dimensional nonlinear search and convergence burden involved, so the computational cost is low. The correction and efficiency of the proposed method are verified by computer simulation results.
