Abstract
The architecture of the present invention is premised upon an algorithm involving integration of oblique correlators and RAKE filtering to null interference from other spread spectrum signals. The oblique correlator is based on the non-orthogonal projections that are optimum for nulling structured signals such as spread spectrum signals. In one configuration, space spanned by a first signal associated with a first emitter is orthogonal to an interference space associated with one or more signals of one or more other emitters. RAKE filtering is used to rapidly steer the beam of the multi-antenna system and to mitigate the effects of multipath.
