Fast super-resolution Burg algorithm for increasing the radar angular resolution

In this paper, a fast super-resolution Burg algorithm for enhancing the angular resolution of the imaging multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar is presented. In this technique physical radar channels are extrapolated to virtual radar channels using a fast Burg algorithm. The algorithm is validated with simulation results as well as experimental measurement results with 60GHz MIMO frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. Fast Burg algorithm shows very promising results in enhancing the spatial resolution of the radar numerically with minimal cost in processing time.
