摘要: In this paper, moving target tracking performance in multiple input output (MIMO) radar systems with distributed antennas and non-coherent processing is studied. Due to the use of multiple, widely antennas, MIMO architectures support both centralized decentralized techniques. Each receiving may contribute central by providing either raw data or partially/fully processed data. Estimation analyzed through Bayesian Cramer-Rao bound (BCRB). The BCRB offers insight into effect radars geometric layout, location, propagation path losses on accuracies. It shown that, different loss, manner which estimations are combined fusion center effects overall estimation performance. Two algorithms proposed, corresponding respectively, a modes operation. demonstrated that communication requirements load be reduced at relatively low cost. Based mission needs, system approach: for high accuracy resource-aware tracking.
