Diagonal loading provides a powerful and effective way to improve the robustness of the standard Capon beamformer. Several parameter-free robust adaptive beamformers (RAB) are considered in this paper. We reveal that the performances of them have somewhat degradation when the number of snapshots or that of sensors is large. To solve this problem, we emphatically study the well-known generalized linear combination-based method, the performance of which may degrade severely when the number of sensors increases, and propose a novel parameter- free technique, which is a combination of noise reduction preprocessing technique and truncated minimum mean square error criterion. As most of the parameter- free RAB techniques are very sensitive to the desired signal steering vector mismatch, this paper further proposes to construct a series connection between these RAB techniques and a steering vector estimation (SVE) method, where the SVE is implemented by a convex optimization technique. Simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve a promising performance in comparison with the competing methods. |
