| contents | We propose an sparse Bayesian learning (SBL)-based method that leverages group sparsity and multiple parameterized dictionaries to detect the relevant dictionary entries and estimate their continuous parameters by combining data from multiple independent sensors. In a MIMO multi-radar setup, we demonstrate its effectiveness in jointly detecting and localizing multiple objects, while also emphasizing its broader applicability to various signal processing tasks. A key benefit of the proposed SBL-based method is its ability to resolve correlated dictionary entries-such as closely spaced objects-resulting in uncorrelated estimates that improve subsequent estimation stages.
Through numerical simulations, we show that our method outperforms the newtonized orthogonal matching pursuit (NOMP) algorithm when two objects cross paths using a single radar. Furthermore, we illustrate how fusing measurements from multiple independent radars leads to enhanced detection and localization performance. |
