Study on Mimo Arrays Optimization

Aiming at the problem about antenna element numbers optimization of long baseline MIMO radar, this paper analylizes the problem by the probability of detection. A detection model is deduced, and a simulation flow is designed. Simulated experimentations are carried out based on different array configurations, and an optimization suggestion is obtained about antenna element numbers of long baseline MIMO radar.
