CDM Based Virtual FMCW MIMO Radar Imaging at 79 GHz

In this paper, we will be using a 79 G Hz Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar and apply the Code Division Multiplexing (CDM) method to increase the number of elements virtually. This, in turn, enhances the angular resolution of the radar. The major contribution of our work comes from the fact that by exploiting the CDM method we will make it possible for multiple FMCW radars to operate in close proximity of each other. In fact, using coded signals the effect of interference can be alleviated considerably.
