Abstract :
Wideband Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar systems have improved performance compared to narrowband systems, including higher resolution and better parameter estimation. In this context, this paper presents a DFT signal model and adaptations of narrowband detection techniques to this model. Next, the performance of these techniques is evaluated after transmitting wideband probing signals designed by the Spectral Focusing Beampattern synthesis Technique (SFBT).
