One of the most damaging factors associated with any radio communication system is the effect of undesirable or interference signals. This innovative new book gives you the knowledge you need to ensure your adaptive array system is protecting your communication links to the fullest. It presents concepts and procedures that help you realize the maximum processing capabilities of a given system, choose the right system for a specific application, and identify precautionary steps to avoid adverse effects.

Introduction to Adaptive Arrays serves as an introduction to the subject of adaptive sensor systems whose principle purpose is to enhance the detection and reception of certain desired signals. The field of array sensor systems is now a maturing technology. With applications of these systems growing more and more numerous, there is a wealth of widely scattered literature on various aspects of such systems. Unfortunately, few books attempt to provide an integrated treatment of the entire system that gives the reader the perspective to organize the available literature into easily understood parts. Intended for use both as a graduate level textbook and as a reference work for engineers, scientists, and systems analysts, this book provides such an integrated treatment by emphasizing the principles and techniques that are of fundamental importance in modern adaptive array systems.

This compilation of the works and insights of various key scientists and engineers in this area addresses the current and future trends of scenarios for employing adaptive antenna arrays in communication systems. Ideal as a quick reference for engineers, researchers, advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.
