Abstract
An analysis of weight jitter in adaptive array control loops is presented. lt is shown that steady state weight jitter and statistical dependence between input signal and weight processes are related factors. A Markov characterization for the first-order adaptive array loop is presented and Fokker-Planck techniques are used to obtain the steady state probability density of the weight process for the case of a one-loop array. From this density the mean and the variance of the weight process are obtained and the dependence of these statistics upon loop and input signal parameters is explored.Keywords
