Efficient computation of the weights of a wideband antenna structure

A novel algorithm for adjusting the array coefficients of a space time array is introduced, which works in parallel and gives higher output signal-to-noise ratios than conventional approaches. It requires only the inversion of one correlation matrix with a size equal to the number of antenna elements M, independent of the number of temporal stages R. Its computational complexity is therefore O{M³} instead of the O{(MR)³} for the conventional approach
