Abstract

MIMO technology allows you to create virtual antenna arrays, significantly reducing the number of receiving and transmitting channels compared to classical phased antenna arrays (PAA). At the same time, the characteristics of the antenna system (width of the radiation pattern, gain factor) and, as a result, the characteristics of the radar (angular resolution, detection range) are preserved. Reducing the number of receiving and transmitting channels leads to a significant reduction in the cost of the radar as a whole. The article describes the process of developing a mathematical model and signal processing software based on the Digilent Zedboard platform. The results of modeling and testing of the hardware and software implementation of the processing algorithm are presented. The degree of loading of the Xilinx Zynq XC7Z020 crystal standing on the Digilent Zedboard platform is estimated.
