Abstract:
In this letter, a coarray Tensor Train (TT) decomposition method is proposed to locate the targets in bistatic Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar with uniform planar array (UPA) geometry. Initially, a five-dimensional (5-D) tensor model is established to preserve the multi-dimensional structure in the receive part. Subsequently, a four-dimensional (4-D) low-rank tensor can be obtained by removing redundant elements in the difference coarray of the eight-dimensional (8-D) covariance tensor. The TT-SVD algorithm is then applied to convert this 4-D tensor into a sequential product of lower-order TT-cores. Compared to CANDECOMP/PARAFAC decomposition (CPD) and Tucker decomposition (TD), the advantages of TTD include flexible multi-way data representation and mitigation of the curse of dimensionality. Furthermore, by using the relationship between Vandermonde factors matrices and TT-cores, a new method by combining different TT-cores is devised to estimate the angle parameters. Simulation results confirm the superiority of the proposed TT-aided method over other tensor-based methods for bistatic MIMO radar.
