ABSTRACT

This chapter aims to provide a system where the onboard computer system can take autonomous decision for mission-related activities, for example, reconnaissance, surveillance and tracking of targets. In mobile intelligent autonomous systems, there are often dynamic scenarios, which require obstacle negotiation. Artificial intelligence based autonomous systems are necessarily integrated with an antenna system as the front-end. Blind methods allow for tracking fast variations in the channel, and re-acquiring operational conditions using only information symbols. From the geometrical prospective, a planar antenna array may be viewed as a array of linear arrays. The chapter analyses the performance of the narrowband antenna array employing the modified improved least mean square algorithm in the presence of wideband probing sources. If the correlation between interferences and the desired signal increases, the probe cancellation capability of the antenna array deteriorates. Adaptive array processing involves the manipulation of signals induced on the elements of an array.
