Comparative Study of Near-field ISAR and MIMO Radar Images

Published:27 November 2017Publication History

ABSTRACT

Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging of turntable targets has been widely used in radar cross section (RCS) diagnosis. A major shortcoming is that the data acquisition time is long due to the time-consuming mechanical rotation of a turntable. The distinctive advantage of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar which is capable of imaging a target with high resolution by using only one snapshot makes it more attractive. In this paper, a comparative study is performed between near-field ISAR and MIMO radar images. Tests are carried out on classical objects such as metallic cylinder and trihedral corner reflector, as well as an aircraft model.
