  • Abstract
    For original paper see Guerci (IEEE Trans. Signal Processing, vol.47, p.977-85, 1999 April). Covariance matrix tapers and derivative constraints in the directions of jammers have been proposed for broadening the null in adaptive processing, thereby improving the algorithms´ robustness. In this correspondence, the relationship between these two methods is explored. A reply is given in which Guerci makes some further points.
