Abstract

An example of a MIMO (multi-input multi-output) sensing system is MIMO radar. Unlike a standard phased-array radar, MIMO radar can transmit via its antennas multiple probing signals that may be correlated or uncorrelated with each other. We provide herein an overview of our recent results on MIMO radar with colocated antennas, showing that this waveform diversity enables the MIMO radar superiority in several fundamental aspects. Probing waveform synthesis for MIMO sensing is also discussed. Finally, MIMO RF sensing in medicine is highlighted.
