Abstract
In this paper, we propose an angle of arrival (AOA)-based beamforming structure with strong interference resistant capability for OFDM systems. First, we present novel interference resistant angle of arrival (AOA) estimation schemes for each multipath without training sequences or symbols as the pre-processing of the proposed structure. The generalized sidelobe canceler (GSC) structure is thus applied with the AOA information to avoid calculating the beamforming weight vector individually on a per subcarrier basis, wherein the GSC structure with the reduced-rank multistage Wiener filter (MSWF) is adopted. We also propose a signal transformation scheme to improve performance before the signals are fed into the GSC receiver. The proposed receiver offers better performance than the GSC form of the constrained Wiener filter-based receiver due to the faster convergence property of reduced rank processing and the signal transformation scheme.
