Abstract

Distributed MIMO Array Radars normally utilize sparse arrays with large equivalent array element spacing, which cannot avoid the generation of grating lobes that cause interference to the received signal. The grating lobes can be suppressed by Phase Coherence Factor (PCF) weighting factor. Regretfully, PCF has problems such as the possibility of suppressing the main lobe as well and the unclear phase resolution of the grating lobes. In this paper, we propose a new weighting factor, namely Embedded Classification Coherence Factor (ECCF), by improving the PCF weighting factor, and propose an embedded superposition method to filter and superimpose the phases of all channels in the BP imaging process. ECCF shows a lower peak side lobe ratio than PCF, and enjoys a superior effect on grating lobe suppression. Simulations are given to verify the performance.
