Broadband Conventional Beamforming Incorporating Adaptive Equalization
Abstract
This report discusses methods which attempt to coherently recombine the spatially and temporally different multipaths with the direct path to enhance array gain. These methods are based on utilizing a broadband conventional beamformer incorporating adaptive equalization to recombine multipath information. Preliminary results are compared with two well-known narrow-band, purely spatial processing techniques: the Bartlett beamformer and the minimum variance distortionless response beamformer. While preliminary results are promising, several important research issues are outlined which remain to be addressed. Adaptive beamforming, Adaptive equalization, Broadband beamforming, Temporal/spatial processing, Multichannel equalization.
