Performance Analysis of Time-Reversal MUSIC

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

In this paper, we study the performance of multiple signal classification (MUSIC) in computational time-reversal (TR) applications. The analysis builds upon classical results on first-order perturbation of singular value decomposition. The closed form of mean-squared error (MSE) matrix of TR-MUSIC is derived for the single-frequency case in both multistatic co-located and non co-located scenarios. The proposed analysis is compared with Cramér-Rao lower-bound (CRLB), and it is exploited for comparison of TR-MUSIC when linear and (nonlinear) multiple-scattering is present. Finally, a numerical analysis is provided to confirm the theoretical findings.
