AI Technical Summary
MIMO radar systems face performance degradation due to factors like reflections from radomes or fascia, leading to false positives and reduced performance even after calibration, which existing methods fail to adequately address.
A method for target testing using raw uncalibrated radar data involves generating a MIMO measurement matrix, extracting singular values, and comparing them to the number of expected targets to identify valid channel responses, allowing for mitigation of degradation and calibration improvements.
Enables effective identification of sensor issues and performance enhancement by distinguishing between actual targets and cover reflections, ensuring accurate radar operation without requiring full calibration.
