Abstract

The invention relates to the field of an antenna, and provides a sparse array MIMO antenna. The sparse array MIMO antenna comprises two emission antennas and four receiving antennas, wherein the distance between the emission antennas is integral multiples of d; the distance among the receiving antennas is integral multiples of the d; the d is an integer being greater than 0; the emission waveformsbetween the emission antennas are orthorhombic; the space between the two emission antennas is Md; the M is a positive integer being greater than or equal to 1; the space between at least one group of adjacent receiving antennas in the four receiving antennas is greater than 2d; the positions of the emission antennas and the receiving antennas are expressed in a vector quantity mode; the vector quantity element is 1 or 0; the 1 shows that an antenna exists in the located position; and the 0 shows that no antenna exists in the located position. The sparse array MIMO antenna provided by the invention has the advantages that the angular resolution of the sparse array MIMO antenna is high; the side lobe is low relative to an ordinary sparse array; and the performance of vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar is improved.
