Popis: For time division multiplexing multiple input multiple output (TDM MIMO) millimeter wave radar, the measurement of target range, velocity and other parameters depends on the phase of the received Intermediate Frequency (IF) signal. The coupling between range and velocity phases occurs when measuring moving targets, leading to inevitable errors in calculating range and velocity from the phase, which in turn affects measurement accuracy. Traditional two-dimensional fast fourier transform (2D FFT) estimation errors are particularly pronounced at high velocity, significantly impacting measurement accuracy. Additionally, due to limitations imposed by the Nyquist sampling theorem, there is a restricted range for velocity measurements that can result in aliasing. In this study, we propose a method to address the coupling of range and velocity based on the original signal as well as a method for velocity compensation to resolve aliasing issues. Our research findings demonstrate that this approach effectively reduces errors in measuring ranges and velocities of high-velocity moving targets while efficiently de-aliasing velocities.
