Degradation of Covariance Reconstruction-Based Adaptive Beamformers

Somasundaram, Samuel and Jakobsson, Andreas LU orcid (2014) Sensor Signal Processing for Defense - SSPD Conference 2014
Abstract
We show that recent robust adaptive beamformers,

based on reconstructing either the noise-plus-interference or

the data covariance matrices, are sensitive to the noise-plus-

interference structure and degrade in the typical case when

interferer steering vector mismatch exists, often performing much

worse than common diagonally loaded sample covariance matrix

based approaches, even when signal-of-interest steering vector

mismatch is absent.
