Angle of arrival estimation using MIMO array antenna

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar has received increasing attention in recent years. MIMO radar has many advantages over conventional phased array radar such as target detection, resolution enhancement, and interference and jamming suppression. In this paper, the results are presented from a simulation study of MIMO uniformly-spaced linear array antennas. The performance is investigated under varied parameters, including varied array size, PN sequence length, number of snapshots, and signal to noise ratio. The results of MIMO are compared to a traditional array antenna.
