An adaptive algorithm for antenna array low-rank processing in cellular TDMA base stations
M. Martone · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1998
A new adaptive algorithm for blind interference rejection and multipath mitigation is studied and applied to antenna array processing in the reverse channel of a time-division multiple-access (TDMA) cellular communication system. The method is based on higher order statistics (HOS) processing of the baseband vector samples at the antenna array output. The similarity between the cumulant-based solution and the standard multivariable least-squares solution is exploited to derive an efficient adaptive algorithm based on a low-rank processing architecture. The algorithm exhibits good tracking and enhanced identification capability with respect to traditional least-squares methods.
