title = "Improve Tracking Speed of Beamformer With Simplified Zero Placement Algorithm",
abstract = "This paper presents a new structure and algorithm to improve the tracking speed of a Generalized Sidelobe Canceler (GSC) based adaptive beamformer. Iterative methods like Conjugate Gradient algorithm to calculate the beamformer weight vector eliminates the complexity of Matrix reversing. But the reduced complexity comes with time cost which requires iterations of calculation before converging to the desired direction. To combat the problem, a Simplified Zero Placement algorithm is proposed to set the initial weight vector to make the starting value near the optimum location of weight vector. Numerical simulation and analysis confirms the effectiveness of the proposed solution.",
