Abstract
Frequency diverse array (FDA) multiple-input multiple-out (MIMO) radar has an inherent higher-dimensional data structure that can be exploited in temporal, spatial, and range-dependent dimensions for space–time-range adaptive processing (STRAP). This paper addresses the problem of tensor filters in application to space–time-range clutter suppression for FDA-MIMO radar. The characteristics of space–time-range clutter are discussed to establish the multidimensional signal models. FDA-MIMO radar can divide the secondary range cell within the range resolution cell of MIMO radar when they have the same matching filter bandwidth in the receive channel. Specifically, the target-free covariance information can be estimated from more secondary training cells for FDA-MIMO radar. According to the discussed properties of space–time-range clutter, namely secondary clutter rings, clutter degrees of freedom (DOFs), and the range-dimensional non-stationary characteristic, a tensor-based STRAP approach with range compensation is proposed to suppress clutter for FDA-MIMO radar. Numerical results verify the mentioned clutter characteristics and illustrate the importance of the samples number and range compensation operation for the proposed tensor filter. Finally, the STRAP performance benefits of FDA-MIMO radar over MIMO radar are discussed by simulations.
