Advantages– Better spatial resolution [Bliss & Forsythe 03]– Flexible transmit beampattern design [Fuhrmann & San Antonio 04]– Improved parameter identifiability [Li et al. 07]

Phased array radar (Traditional)Each element transmits a scaled version of a single waveform.

MIMO RadarEach element can transmit an arbitrary waveform.
