Abstract

See full text

An antenna array system and method is provided for reducing interference from a source moving relative to the antenna array system. The antenna array system includes a receiver and a plurality of antenna array elements arranged in a planar array. Each of the plurality of antenna array elements is in electrical communication with the receiver and in a locationally fixed position relative to the receiver. The plurality of antenna array elements receives a desired signal and interference from the source moving relative to the antenna array system. The receiver is configured to detect a presence of the interference. In response to the detection of the presence of the interference, the receiver is further configured to steer a deep antenna-pattern null in a direction of the interference.
