Adaptive Beamforming In Frequency-Dispersive Multipath Environments, David A. Murray Dec 1994

Adaptive Beamforming In Frequency-Dispersive Multipath Environments, David A. Murray

Theses and Dissertations

It is well known that an antenna array with N degrees of freedom (DOF) can cancel N - 1 interferers if they approach the array from directions other than that of the desired signal. It has been shown that there are cases in which it is possible for an array with N DOF to effectively cancel more than N - 1 interferers. Specifically, we show how this can be done when there is incident upon an N-element array not only the desired signal and a jammer signal, but more than N - 1 Doppler-shifted multipath copies of the jammer signal …


Analysis And Simulation Of Narrowband Gps Jamming Using Digital Excision Temporal Filtering, Gerald L. Falen Dec 1994

Analysis And Simulation Of Narrowband Gps Jamming Using Digital Excision Temporal Filtering, Gerald L. Falen

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the performance of the Digital Excision Temporal Filter (DETF) to reject narrowband jammers used against the Global Positioning System (GPS). The DETF takes the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the GPS signal and excises any FFT bins that are above a preselected threshold level. Then the excised signal is Inverse Fourier Transformed and fed to the GPS receiver. Several jammer types are simulated including Continuous Wave (CW), Pulse CW, Swept CW, Narrowband Spot Noise, and Wideband Barrage Noise jammers. Cases are also simulated using all but the Wideband Barrage Noise jammer at …
