In order to improve the performance of the traditional optimum space filtering algorithm
a polarization-space adaptive beamforming algorithm based on PSA(Polarization Sensitive Array) was presented in this paper.The signal model and basic idea of the proposed algorithm were given
and then the principle of polarization-space adaptive filtering was discussed.Furthermore
the performance of the proposed algorithm was analyzed and compared through numerical simulations.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively improve the SINR and reduce the effect of pointingerror
and that it obviously outperforms traditional optimum filtering approach.
