Abstract

The invention provides a robust beam forming method based on a steering vector and space power estimation, so as to improve the robustness of random errors on an incoming wave direction and to realizeaccurate signal steering vector estimation under the condition of interference in a main lobe of a beam. The invention provides a signal plus interference covariance matrix reconstruction algorithm,which introduces a correlation coefficient to serve as a signal subspace selection criterion, reconstructs a sampling covariance matrix signal plus interference subspace, and performs alternate projection in combination with a covariance matrix containing a signal subspace and obtained by signal angle interval discrete sampling, so as to perform the accurate signal steering vector estimation and to design a robust adaptive beam former under the condition of interference in the main lobe of the beam.
