Adaptive Moving Jammer Cancellation Algorithm with the Robustness to the Array Aperture

  • Published : 2004.06.01

Abstract

In moving jammer environments, the performance of conventional adaptive beamformer is severely degraded and the robust adaptive beamformer requires additional sensors to obtain desired performances. Therefore, it is necessary to develop efficient algorithm without any additional requirement of the number of sensors, etc. In this paper, we introduce a fast adaptive algorithm with variable forgetting factor, which does not have any additional requirements. From the computer simulations, we obtain the better performances than those of other techniques for the arrays with various aperture lengths.
