| Summary: | Multi-dimensional parameters joint estimation of multi-targets is introduced to implement super-resolution sensing in range, velocity, azimuth angle, and elevation angle for frequency-modulated continuous waveform (FMCW) radar systems. In this paper, a low complexity joint 3D super-resolution estimation of range, velocity, and angle of multi-targets is proposed for an FMCW radar with a uniform linear array. The proposed method firstly constructs the size-reduced 3D matrix in the frequency domain for the system model of an FMCW radar system. Secondly, the size-reduced 3D matrix is established, and low complexity three-level cascaded 1D spectrum estimation implemented by applying the Lagrange multiplier method is developed. Finally, the low complexity joint 3D super-resolution algorithms are validated by numerical experiments and with a 77 GHz FMCW radar built by Texas Instruments, with the proposed algorithm achieving significant estimation performance compared to conventional algorithms.
