Aiming at the problem of the small aperture of the traditional MIMO radar with virtual degrees of freedom, this paper designs a high degree of freedom space-limited MIMO radar. Both the transmitting and receiving elements of this radar adopt a sparse array structure. Array composition, the receiving array element is composed of a single array element and a uniform linear array. The number of virtual array elements can be realized by using array elements. Compared with the traditional sparse array MIMO radar with the same number of elements, the designed space-limited sparse array MIMO radar has a larger aperture. Experimental simulations verify the superiority of the space-limited MIMO radar angle estimation.
