摘要:
A beamformer for a main antenna and a plurality of auxiliary antennas converts the main and each of the auxiliary signals to digital form. Each of the real and auxiliary digital signals is applied to a pair of real multipliers, in which multiplication by beamforming weights is performed, to produce one weighted real main signal, one weighted imaginary main signal, and a plurality of weighted real and weighted imaginary auxiliary signals. The weighted real main and auxiliary signals are summed together by a cascade of summers, and the weighted imaginary main and auxiliary signals are likewise summed together by another summed cascade. A digital product detector is connected to the output of each summer cascade. The first digital product detector produces in-phase and quadrature components of real detected signals, and the second digital product detector produces in-phase and quadrature components of imaginary detected signals. The quadrature imaginary detected signals are subtracted from the in-phase real detected signals, and the in-phase imaginary detected signals are added to the quadrature real detected signals, to produce signals corresponding to the signals received by the main antenna with reduced sidelobes.
