Abstract

The relative velocity between ground surface and receiver platform leads to clutter expansion in the range-doppler surface. The expanded clutters can mask slow moving targets. The passive radar is a low cost and light weight radar with high detection ability, due to its multistatic geometry. In this paper, we employ the MISO passive radar with at least four transmitters of opportunity to constitute an over-determined system of equations. We propose an algorithm to localize moving targets in the presence of clutters. In the first step, the clutters are separated from moving targets and in the second one, the position and velocity of the target are computed by solving the system of equations. Performance of the proposed method is verified by experimental results.
