An Improved High-Precision Approach Based on Deconvolution in MIMO Sonar Imagery

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) sonar enables high-resolution imaging, which is extremely useful in underwater acoustic high-precision imagery. However, the first peak sidelobe levels and beamwidth performance degrade significantly when conventional tapering is applied due to the non-uniformity of the spanned virtual linear array, which prevents MIMO sonar from obtaining high-precision image...
