Abstract

The author investigates the use of transform-domain adaptive filtering for the suppression of narrowband jammers in a direct-sequence (DS) spread-spectrum receiver. An input signal consisting of the DS signal, white Gaussian noise, and a narrowband jammer is transformed into the frequency domain where adaptive filtering acts to suppress the jammer. Weight leakage is used to allow jammer suppression while preserving the desired DS signal. Bit error rate (BER) results obtained by computer simulation are presented to illustrate performance for a single-tone jammer and for a jammer consisting of a second DS signal with a lower chip rate. These results are compared to those for a transform-domain exciser. Expressions for the converged tap weights are derived and the results are verified via the simulation. Finally, the convergence properties of the adaptive suppressor are illustrated.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
