Abstract

In this paper an efficient, adaptive realization of the LCMV beamformer using a multichannel least squares lattice filter, is presented. The main features of the proposed adaptive multichannel scheme is the use of scalar only operations, and the local communication which enables the develop ment of a fully pipelined architecture, suitable for parallel implementation on a general purpose parallel machine, or on dedicated VLSI hardware, using a systolic, or a wave front array processors.
