Abstract
The generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) is an efficient implementation of the direction constrained adaptive array. Conventional GSC is designed according to a quiescent weight vector and a blocking matrix. The quiescent weight vector provides the array with specified array response at some direction. The blocking matrix is designed based on a priori knowledge of the direction of arrival (DOA) of the desired signal. In this paper, we propose a new GSC-based adaptive array without a priori knowledge of the DOA of the desired signal. This paper utilizes eigensubspace decomposition and statistically cyclostationary properties of the signals to design the adaptive array. A method for constructing the most efficient blocking matrix for the GSC is developed. Simulation examples illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
