A low-cost experimental adaptive array built in the UHF band (900 MHz) for a minimum response time in interference cancellation

Abstract

In many applications the practical usefulness of adaptive antennas depends on both the convergence rate and noise rejection that can be achieved. Adaptive antenna systems lead generally to very complicated and high cost implementations. An inexpensive hardware prototype is suggested for a real-time processing solution. The emphasis is on its flexibility for the use of various discrete adaptive algorithms.<>
