Spatial processing that exploits the diversity provided by smart antenna arrays, in which the adaptive beamformer is employed, is another alternative to increase the efficiency of wireless system capacity and performance without allocating additional frequency spectrum. An array beamformer is a processor used in conjunction with an array of sensors to provide a versatile form of spatial filtering; it can be designed to form main lobe in direction corresponding to the desired source and nulling the interferences from others direction. They are two types of adaptive array beamformer structures, viz., broadband and narrowband array structures. To deal with the wideband desired signal or interferences the broadband array beamformer is preferred. For broadband interferences suppression, many adaptive array beamforming algorithms, based on the linearly constrained have been extensively used. In this thesis, the beamspace approach for designing the broadband antenna array beamformer, with frequency invariant character, is devised and implemented with the sliding window linearly constrained RLS (SW-LC-RLS) algorithm, to deal with the broadband moving jammers (or interferences) suppression. Also, to combat the pointing error effect of desired user¡¦s look direction, the derivative constraint is adopted for devising the derivative SW-LC-RLS beamforming algorithm for broadband moving jammers suppression. Computer simulation results confirmed that the proposed scheme is more robust against the moving jammers over the conventional algorithms. It can be applied to the existing wideband wireless communications systems to achieve desired performance for supporting high data rate communication services.
