Motivated by the development of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) communication, MIMO radar has drawn considerable attention. While, to design of MIMO radar detector, transmitting signal power and noise are usually assumed known in advance, but in practice we may need to estimate the transmitting signal power and noise first. In this paper, we introduce MIMO radar target performance analysis with unknown parameters. First transmitting signal energy is estimated by Maximum likelihood Estimation(MLE) when multipath satisfy special diversity condition and multipath has low rank. Then the detector in the Neyman-Pearson is developed and analyzed with estimated parameters. The simulation results show that the performance with unknown parameters is approximate to the detector with known parameters. The method proposed in this paper can be used to design the MIMO radar detectors with unknown parameters.

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.

Distributed multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar has attracted much attention for its improved detection and estimation performance as well as enhanced electronic counter-counter measures (ECCM) ability. To protect the target from being detected and tracked by such radar, we consider a barrage jamming strategy towards a distributed MIMO. We first derive the Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) of target parameters estimation using a distributed MIMO under barrage jamming environments. We then set maximizing the CRB as the criterion for jamming resource allocation, aiming at degrading the accuracy of target parameters estimation. Due to the non-convexity of the CRB maximizing problem, particle swarm optimization is used to solve the problem. Simulation results demonstrate the advantages of the proposed strategy over traditional jamming methods.
