On the Efficient Implementation and Time-Updating of the Linearly Constrained Minimum Variance Beamformer
(2006) 14th European Signal Processing Conference 53(10). p.1059-1062- Abstract
- The linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) method
is an extension of the classical minimum variance distortionless
response (MVDR) filter, allowing for multiple linear
constraints. Depending on the spatial filter length and
the desired frequency grid, a direct computation of the resulting
spatial beampattern may be prohibitive. In this paper,
we exploit the rich structure of the LCMV expression to find
a non-recursive computationally efficient implementation of
the LCMV beamformer with fixed constraints. We then extend
this implementation by means of its time-varying displacement
structure to derive an efficient time-updating algorithm

indicate a dramatic computational gain, especially for large
arrays and fine frequency grids. (Less)
