For example, a MIMO radar may include a plurality of Tx chains to process a plurality of digital Tx signals for transmission of a plurality of Tx RF signals; a plurality of Rx chains configured to output a plurality of digital Rx signals based on a plurality of Rx RF signals and a plurality of digital leakage-cancellation signals, wherein an Rx chain of the plurality of Rx chains is configured to output a digital Rx signal based on an Rx RF signal and a digital leakage-cancellation signal corresponding to the Rx chain; and a digital MIMO filter to generate the plurality of digital leakage-cancellation signals based on the plurality of digital Tx signals, the digital MIMO filter configured to generate the digital leakage-cancellation signal corresponding to the Rx chain by applying to the plurality of digital Tx signals a respective plurality of filters corresponding to the Rx chain.
