Abstract

This invention discloses a method for joint target detection and localization using distributed passive MIMO radar, comprising: acquiring discrete time-domain signals from a reference channel and a receiving channel; simultaneously introducing target state variables to establish a unified model for the received signals of the distributed passive radar; establishing a marginal probability estimation problem for unknown parameters in the joint target detection and localization using distributed passive MIMO radar, and constructing a factor graph model for joint target detection and localization using distributed passive MIMO radar; iteratively updating the message and confidence of each variable in the factor graph model to obtain the confidence of the target state variable and the confidence of the target position variable; obtaining a log-likelihood function based on the confidence of the target state variable, and obtaining a test threshold accordingly to achieve target detection; and simultaneously, achieving target localization based on the mean of the confidence of the target position variable. This method can reduce computational complexity, has high detection performance, and good resistance to direct wave interference.
