Transient analysis of an adaptive array in the presence of a step and periodic noise jammer
Abstract
The transient behavior of an adaptive null steering antenna array with an arbitrary number of elements is investigated. The algorithm for nulling is based on minimum mean squared error (MMSE) from a known reference. We compare the transient performance as a function of angle of arrival of a pulsed and continuous noise jammer in the presence of a constant signal plus independent antenna element noises. It is shown, that under certain circumstances a pulsed jammer can result in a significantly slower nulling than a continuous jammer with the same average power.
