Abstract :
We present an approach based on the method of moments (MOM) to model and eliminate the mutual coupling for signals arriving from a given direction of arrival (DOA). The MOM can model the mutual coupling and any near field scatterers that may be present. The technique is tested on a linear array with a signal being corrupted by jammers. Another test is the same array in the presence of a near field scatterer.
