Abstract

This paper describes a baseline target tracking system implemented using the GTRI/ONR Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Radar Benchmark platform. MIMO radar systems have been garnering a significant amount of attention for their potential to improve overall radar performance in comparison to existing systems. While there is much in the current literature regarding the performance and parameter design of MIMO radar target tracking systems, there is little that describes a complete target tracking solution. Such a solution would integrate measurement processing, data assignment, and track filtering into a single unit. The “MIMO tracker” described in this paper aims to provide a starting point for such tracking solutions. Although na¨ive in some respects, this MIMO tracker provides a comparison tool for new MIMO target tracking algorithms. The resultsof running the tracker with the scenarios provided in the GTRI/ONR MIMO Radar Benchmark are also presented.
