We have developed useful results on the application of low rank Matrix Completion (MC) in a colocated Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Radar setting, employed as a means for effectively reducing the volume of data required for target detection and estimation.
We studied the applicability of MC on the type of data matrices appearing in colocated MIMO radar. In particular, for the classical case of a uniform linear array, we showed for the first time that the coherence of the data matrix is asymptotically optimal with respect to the number of antennas. As a result, the data matrix is provably recoverable via MC using a subset of its entries of minimal cardinality.
These results were subsequently generalized to the case of an arbitrary 2-dimensional array, providing more general but yet easy to use sufficient conditions, ensuring low matrix coherence.
