Abstract

A CMA-based antenna system is disclosed which shows an improved receiving performance by reducing phase differences in the received signals which have been weighted. The CMA-based antenna system comprises a plurality of antenna, weight circuits, an adder, an error detector and a synthesis controller. The synthesis controller controls the weight circuits so as not only to make the adder output at a preset level but also to cause any differences among the weight circuit outputs not to increase. In order to cope with an error of symbol synchronization and a delayed wave, the CMA-based antenna system may further have a kind of equalizer inserted before the weight circuit in each antenna circuit.
