Null steering methods usually involve costly and complicated amplitude and/or phase control systems. A technique is presented for null steering based on the element position perturbations. The technique frees the phase shifters to be used solely for steering the main beam toward the direction of the desired signal. It also removes the limitations of the other techniques by independently steering the main beam and the nulls to arbitrary independent directions. This technique is also capable of obtaining sidelobe cancellation and wideband signal rejection
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
