Radar Sensor Network Design and Optimization for Blind Speed Alleviation

In this paper we propose orthogonal waveforms and equal gain combination algorithm in radar sensor network (RSN) to alleviate blind speed problem. We also design a fuzzy logic system (FLS) to optimize the number of radars in RSN. Simulation results show that our FLS-based RSN can not only balance the number of radars and QoS in terms of probability of miss detection (PMD), but to some extent achieve constant PMD with different system configuration.
