Radar adaptive beamforming algorithms and architectures

Adaptive beamforming algorithms and architectures for phased array radars are reviewed. In particular, the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) beamformer with a normalized least mean square (LMS) weight update algorithm is examined for airborne surveillance applications. LCMV simulation results for realistic clutter, noise, and array miscalibration models are presented. The LCMV beamformer with a normalized LMS weight update algorithm is shown to offer good, performance with minimum computational complexity.<<ETX>>
