Polarisation‐sensitive array (PSA) has earned extensive attention in satellite communication owing to excellent anti‐interference performance. Nevertheless, the configuration of traditional PSA where each polarised antenna requires multiple radio frequency (RF) front‐ends makes it much more costly in terms of hardware and software for system design. In this paper, resorting to RF switches, a novel reconfigurable PSA optimisation technique is developed that utilises fewer RF front‐ends, which can considerably decrease computational expenditure and achieve high anti‐jamming performance. An RF switch switching (RFSS) scheme is devised to guide the implementation of PSA reconfiguration. To accurately demonstrate the effect of the array configuration on interference rejection performance, the polarisation‐spatial subspace correlation coefficient (PSC) is presented. Then the relationship between the optimal signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and the PSC based on adaptive processing is formulated. Aiming to acquire the optimal reconstructed PSA outputting the maximum SINR, the mathematical model of the PSA reconfiguration problem is established. Subsequently, two optimisation methods are provided to address the problem efficiently, thereby gaining the optimal configuration of the reconstructed PSA and implementing the reconfiguration by RF switches. Numerical and experimental simulations verify the correctness and reliability of the developed scheme and approaches.
