Enhancing Calibration Precision in MIMO Radar with Initial Parameter Optimization

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: For Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADASs), lots of researchers have been constantly researching various devices that can become the eyes of a vehicle. Currently represented devices are LiDAR, camera, and radar. This paper suggests one of the operation processes to study radar, which can be used regardless of climate change or weather, day or night. Thus, we propose a simple and easy calibration method for Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) radar to guarantee performance with initial calibration parameters. Based on a covariance matrix, the modified signals of all channels improve performance, reducing unexpected interferences. Therefore, using the proposed coupling matrix, we can reduce unexpected interference and generate accurately calibrated results. To prove and verify the improvement in our method, a practical experiment is conducted with Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) MIMO radar, mounted on an automotive.
