Patent number: 12287398Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and a method for generating a radar image of a scene. The method comprises receiving radar measurements of a scene collected from a set of antennas, wherein the set of antennas are under uncertainties caused by one or a combination of position ambiguities and clock ambiguities of each of the antennas. The method further comprises generating the radar image of the scene by solving a sparse recovery problem. The sparse recovery problem determines, until a termination condition is met, a set of image shifts of the radar image corresponding to different uncertainties of the antennas and updates an estimate of the radar image, based on the determined set of image shifts of the radar image. The sparse recovery problem is solved with a neural network denoiser that denoises a filtering of the estimate of the radar image.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2022Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Hassan Mansour, Suhas Lohit, Petros Boufounos
