Adaptive Time Taps of STAP Under Channel Mismatch for GNSS Antenna Arrays

Although antenna arrays can effectively suppress interference and maintain the navigation signal integrity, interference suppression performance is limited by channel mismatch. However, a space-time adaptive processor (STAP) can reduce channel mismatch by introducing time taps within each element, w...

Zusammenfassung:Although antenna arrays can effectively suppress interference and maintain the navigation signal integrity, interference suppression performance is limited by channel mismatch. However, a space-time adaptive processor (STAP) can reduce channel mismatch by introducing time taps within each element, which will further suppress the interference and improve the performance. However, interference suppression depends significantly on the number of time taps. This paper presents a proportion differentiation (PD) algorithm for the adaptive control of time taps based on the antenna arrays output power is presented. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through simulations and measured data. The STAP with adaptive time taps has achieved excellent performance for interference suppression performance without increasing the computational load.
