Abstract :
Adaptive antennas provide automatic adjustment of the radiation pattern to enhance the desired signal and minimize any interference sources that are present. Unfortunately, certain environments result in very slow convergence if conventional algorithms are used. This paper investigates the constraints that must be satisfied and presents computer simultation results for two unconventional techniques for accelerating convergence.
