Robust Sidelobe Control for Adaptive Beamformers Against Array Imperfections via Subspace Approximation-Based Optimization by Yang Zou, Zhoupeng Ding, Hongtao Li, Shengyao Chen, Sirui Tian, Jin He

“…Moreover, we leverage the Gauss–Legendre quadrature-based scheme to generate the sidelobe space in a computationally efficient manner. Additionally, we give an explicit approach for determining the norm upper bound of SV uncertainty sets under various imperfection scenarios, addressing the challenge of obtaining this upper bound in practice.Simulation results showed that the proposed subspace approximation-based RAB beamformer had a better SINR performance than typical counterparts and was much more computationally efficient.…”
