Compensation Of Phase Errors In The Frequency Domain For Multi-Carrier Lfmcw Mimo Radar

This letter proposes a blind phase compensation method for the phase errors in the Multi-Carrier Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar, which decouples the range and DOA coupling. The phase errors under the Linear Frequency Modulated Continuous Waveform (LFMCW) scheme are firstly derived, followed with the signal processing steps. Further, multiple targets with certain velocities can be handled uniformly without pre-knowledge of the actual range information of the targets. The evaluations of the DOA estimation performance are carried out through simulations, which validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
