摘要： A method for controlling an adaptive antenna array (50) is provided and includes receiving a plurality of signals, each signal including a series of signal data symbols (42) and signal non-data symbols (38, 40) divided into symbol transmission units with the signal non-data symbols (38, 40) disposed among the signal data symbols (42) in each unit and each signal related to the other signals of the plurality of signals as reflections of an original signal. The method also includes separating the signal non-data symbols (38, 40) from the signal data symbols (42), and comparing the signal non-data symbols (38, 40) to a set of known non-data symbols. The method further includes determining a set of weights according to the comparison of the signal non-data symbols (38, 40) to the set of known non-data symbols, the weights to be combined with the signal data values (42) to limit the effect of interference on the signal data symbols (42). An adaptive antenna array (50) is also provided including a weight calculator (62) including a program which controls the weight calculator (62) to perform the comparing (88, 90) and determining steps (94) of the method discussed above.
