Effective combined detection and suppression of multiple interference sources using planar phased arrays

This paper presents a concept for Controlled Reception Pattern Antennas with the capacity of accurately detecting and suppressing multiple interference sources (jammers) while keeping a good coverage. The use of a large number of elements in this phased array allows for high detection accuracy and effective suppression of a large number of jammers while keeping a good coverage even in the worst-case scenarios. These properties are important for applications such as high precision navigation systems.
