Abstract :
The authors examine a hybrid adaptive antenna array with adjustable real scaling factors which minimizes the effect of the random errors contained in the steering and reference vectors and maximizes the output SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) with a priori knowledge of the reference errors. Performance results are presented for this hybrid array.<>
