Abstract :
The purpose of the work presented have is to employ space-time block codes (STBC) to eliminate the cross-correlation effects among parallelly transmitted probing signals of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar imaging system. By exploiting the diversity offered by the transmission scheme, the hardware requirement can be substantially reduced compared with conventional technology.
