Description
Summary:Abstract A high precision estimation algorithm for ground moving targets in multi‐channel wide‐area surveillance ground moving target indication systems is proposed based on maximum likelihood method. The main concept of this novel algorithm is to estimate the azimuth angle of the detected targets using maximum likelihood method with the space steering vector formed by the estimated interferometric phase extracted from the mainlobe clutter region of the real data. Through this novel algorithm, the effect of channel errors among the multi‐channels can be well reduced. Simulation experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
