<p>A frequency reuse, phased array antenna system for receiving two or more cofrequency wanted signals and suppressing cochannel interference therebetween, includes a phased array antenna (1) having a plurality of elements (2), two or more Beam Forming Networks (3,4), with the number of Beam Forming Networks (3,4) corresponding to the number of wanted signals (W,I) to be received, with the Beam Forming Networks (3,4) being connected in parallel to the elements (2), and with each Beam Forming Network (3,4) being selectively weighted to generate a high gain communications beam corresponding in direction to that of the particular one of the wanted signals (W,I) to be received by that Beam Forming Network (3,4) and to generate an output signal (5,6) representative of the received wanted signal (W,I) plus interference from the or each other wanted signal (I,W), and complex weighting means (7,8) interconnecting the output signals (5,6) from each Beam Forming Network (3,4) and operative to suppress cross or co-channel interference by each communications beam acting both as a main communications beam and as a cancellation beam cancelling and suppressing the interference effect of the other communications beam. <IMAGE></p> |
