Abstract
The concentric circular array with robust algorithm is addressed in this paper. A uniform concentric circular array antenna (CCAA) geometry is targeted due to its symmetrical configuration which enables the phased array antenna to scan azimuthally with minimal changes in its beam width and sidelobe levels. This paper first compares the performances of CCAA configuration with existing uniform circular arrays (UCA) to validate the suitability of the presented beamformer. Then the performance of CCAA based optimal beamformer is compared with delay-and-sum beamformer in the presence of interfering signals. The performance of optimal CCAA processor is reduced if signal of interest is deviate from the look direction. This paper also presents a diagonal loading technique to make the system robust for resolving the degradation problem and compare the performance with existing beamforming technique. MATLAB software is used to analyze the performance of proposed CCAA processor.
