| Abstract: | An important problem of the adaptive array antenna proposed previously in regard to its installation is the increased equipment size. This is because the adaptive array antenna requires as many RF circuits as the number of antenna elements. In this paper, in the case where there is an input in one system, we study an adaptive array antenna with sequential processing (AAA-SP) in which the MMSE (minimum mean square error) criterion is used to control array weights by means of sequential processing of sampled signal data. Since there is only one input system in this case, it is found that the SINR is degraded due to reduction of correlation among elements if the conventional MMSE criterion is used as the adaptive control algorithm. Hence, in order to improve the deterioration of the SINR, a tapped-delay-line adaptive array antenna with sequential processing (TDL-AAA-SP) is proposed in which oversampling and a TDL-AAA are combined. It is theoretically proven that the TDL-AAA-SP improves the SINR by recovering from reduction of correlation by means of correlation on the time axis. A computer simulation demonstrates that the proposed scheme is effective. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Electron Comm Jpn Pt 1, 87(2): 59–67, 2004; Published online in Wiley InterScience ( |
