Abstract :
In a phased array radar which uses Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) techniques, each (group of) element(s) transmits a different waveform. This extra degree of freedom in the design of a phased array radar potentially yields an advantage for improved suppression of sidelobe clutter and jamming. In this paper a Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) waveform for suppression of jamming in a MIMO radar is investigated and compared to space-coded waveforms such as TDMA and FDMA.
