"This thesis describes a blind beamforming technique for GPS receivers. It improves the performance of a GPS receiver by mitigating interference and enhancing GPS signals separately and has a three-stage structure. The technique is based on a linear antenna array and integrates the eigendecomposition based subspace and multiple independent beamforming techniques. A signal model is carefully constructed. Particular emphasis is placed upon the projection matrix derived from the subspace technique. The effect of interference and phase error on this technique is discussed. This technique is tested and compared to null steering and MMSE technique using simulated data for a number of interference environments. Furthermore, the proposed technique is applied to real data and shows several advantages over simple null steering."--Abstract.
