Abstract
Process for estimating the correlation matrix of signals of unknown characteristics in an array of N sensor. The process determines the correlation matrix {circumflex over (R)}s of the signals of known characteristics, estimates the correlation matrix {circumflex over (R)}x of the sensor signals, forms a matrix A equal to A={circumflex over (R)}s{circumflex over (R)}x {circumflex over (R)}sand decomposes the matrix A into eigenelements, constructs a matrix B based on the eigenelements of the matrix A, and determines the estimated correlation matrix {circumflex over (R)}b of the interfering signals based on the estimated matrix {circumflex over (R)}s and of the matrix B, such that {circumflex over (R)}b={circumflex over (R)}sB {circumflex over (R)}s. Such a process may find application to antenna processing.
