Ideal transmitting and receiving (Tx/Rx) array response is always desirable in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar. In practice, nevertheless, Tx/Rx arrays may be susceptible to unknown gain-phase errors (GPE) and yield seriously decreased positioning accuracy. This paper focuses on the direction-of-departure (DOD) and direction-of-arrival (DOA) problem in bistatic MIMO radar with unknown gain-phase errors (GPE). A novel parallel factor (PARAFAC) estimator is proposed. The factor matrices containing DOD and DOA are firstly obtained via PARAFAC decomposition. One DOD-DOA pair estimation is then accomplished from the spectrum searching. Thereafter, the remainder DOD and DOA are achieved by the least squares technique with the previous estimated angle pair. The proposed estimator is analyzed in detail. It only requires one instrumental Tx/Rx sensor, and it outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms. Numerical simulations verify the theoretical advantages.

Using a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar for environment sensing is gaining more attention in unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). During the movement of the UGV, the position of MIMO array compared to the ideal imaging position will inevitably change. Although compressed sensing (CS) imaging can provide high resolution imaging results and reduce the complexity of the system, the inaccurate MIMO array elements position will lead to defocusing of imaging. In this paper, a method is proposed to realize MIMO array motion error compensation and sparse imaging simultaneously. It utilizes a block coordinate descent (BCD) method, which iteratively estimates the motion errors of the transmitting and receiving elements, as well as synchronously achieving the autofocus imaging. The method accurately estimates and compensates for the motion errors of the transmitters and receivers, rather than approximating them as phase errors in the data. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and measured experiments in a smoky environment.
