Sidelobe canceller(SLC) requires main beam pattern(SUM beam) and auxiliary beam patterns for rejection of sidelobe noise jammer. For best performance of sidelobe noise jamming cancellation of adaptive SLC, gain dominant region of each auxiliary beam pattern shall not be overlapped one another in elevation/azimuth regions of sidelobe of main beam, and beam patterns of auxiliary channels should have low gains in regions of mainlobe of main beam. In the monopulse radar, the difference beam patterns for monopulse processing have these properties. This paper proposes the method using data from the difference channel for monopulse processing as data from auxiliary channel for sidelobe cancellation. For the proposed SLC, the results of simulation and performance analysis was presented. If the proposed method is used in the monopulse radar, SLC can be constructed by using basic SUM and difference channels without extra channel composition.

A TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System) is a wireless communication system designed to monitor the pressure and temperature of pneumatic tires of a vehicle. In order to provide the aid in protecting a driver, this system reports tire pressure information to the driver of the vehicle. Since the wireless communication technique should be employed to transmit the TPMS data from each tire to signal processing unit in the vehicle, it suffers from interference signals from external electrical or electronics equipments. In this paper, we propose the TPMS interference cancellation technique based on GSC(Generalized Sidelobe Canceler), which does not have only the excellent performance like MVDR(Minimum-Variance-Distortionless-Response) but also has the low computational complexity comparing with MVDR. The performance of interference suppression is conformed by computer simulation examples.

This paper showed the convergence rate and the performance of interference cancellation using Applebaum and DMI algorithms in adaptive sidelobe canceller. Applebaum algorithm is used widely due to simplicity but it has a slow convergence rate and the problem of eigenvalue spread. DMI algorithm converges rapidly but has computational load and hardware complexity. We compared the performance and complexity using Applebaum and DMI algorithms in Adaptive SLC that requires rapid convergence rate and the performance and conclude that DMI algorithm is more efficient for adaptive SLC.

Noise cancellation is essential for the devices which use speech as an interface. In real environments, speech quality and recognition rates are degraded by the auditive noises coming near the microphone. In this paper, we propose a noise cancellation algorithm using stereo microphones basically. The advantage of the use of multiple microphones is that the direction information of the target source could be applied. The proposed noise canceller is based on the Wiener filter. To estimate the filter, noise and target speech frequency responses should be known and they are estimated by the spectral classification in the frequency domain. The performance of the proposed algorithm is compared with that of the well-known Frost algorithm and the generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) with an adaptation mode controller (AMC). As performance measures, the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ), which is the most widely used among various objective speech quality methods, and speech recognition rates are adopted.

In this paper, we propose a frequency reuse method for efficient frequency use of multi-site weather radar. Our method uses a set of orthogonal pulse compression codes and CLEAN algorithm for sidelobe interference cancellation. Computer simulation results show that performance of proposed method meet performance requirements of [1], The current S-band weather radars in South Korea use the 8 different frequency channels to avoid interference. Using proposed method, number of occupied channels can reduce from 8 to 1, the 7 frequency channels may be use for other services.

The conventional GSC is inappropriate in real situation when the target signal is present. The steering vector error cancels the target signal and the target signal misadjusts the weight of the adaptive filter. To prevent the target signal cancellation, the robust GSC using the constrained adaptive filters was already proposed. However, the adaptive weight misadjustment is not settled in robust GSC. This Paper proposes a revised robust sidelobe canceller with adaptive compensator. To compensate the influence of target signal, the adaptive compensator is used in cascade. In computer simulation, we show the performance improvement by comparing the robust GSC with the proposed GSC.

This paper proposes a frequency-domain partially adaptive algorithm, called a censoring algorithm, to reduce the computational complexity of the frequency domain adaptive array. The proposed censoring algorithm determines the existence of interferences in the frequency-domain at each frequency bin using a constant false alarm rate (CFAR) processor. The censoring algorithm adapts only those parts of the weights that correspond to the frequency bins expected to contain interferences. The censoring algorithm is also expanded to overcome the signal cancellation phenomenon caused by smart jammers. Accordingly, a censoring spatial smoothing, which combines the censoring algorithm with spatial smoothing, is proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms are effective in removing interferences with only part of the computational complexity of conventional algorithms yet with the same level of performance.

In this paper, we propose a novel spectral-chopping model of Class-II$(1+D)^2$ -PRS system which reveals improved spectral efficiency. We build up the model having spectrum chopped by the amount of Nyquist over-rate, and then compare its characteristics with the conventional model in both the time-domain and the frequency-domain. When the transmission system operates above the Nyquist rate, the new model has better performance than the conventional PRS using its inherent speed-tolerance. According to our investigations, Class-II PRS shows more excellent effect in the spectral-chopping method than Class- I and W types analyzed previously. We ascertain that the over-rate of 26.675 obtained by the inherent speed-tolerance could be improved upto 40% using spectrum-truncation. These effects come from the fact that the raised-cosine spectrum of Class-II PRS has smaller Boss of frequency component and energy than any other types for the same amount of truncation. In order to validate these theoretical results, we present their sidelobe-trends confirming cancellation effects at the sampling instants and some experimental results showing their patterns of eye-openings and spectra.
