AN IMPROVED ADAPTIVE BEAMFORMING ALGORITHM FOR 5G INTERFERENCE-COEXISTENCE COMMUNICATION

Multiple wireless systems coexisting in a 5G network might produce interference in the same frequency band, degrading the received signal's performance. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed in antenna array processing to handle interference-coexistence communication. We adopt a linear filter which is called Linearly Constrained Minimum Variance (LCMV) filter. We impose a log-sum penalty on the coefficients and add it to the cost function based on classic singly linearly constrained least mean square (LC-LMS). The iterative formula for filter weights is derived. We demonstrate that the new method's convergence rate is faster than the traditional one using simulations in an antenna environment with a signal of interest, noise, and interferences. Furthermore, the proposed method's mean-square-error (MSE) is confirmed. Our technique has a lower MSE than the classic LC-LMS algorithm, according to the findings of the experiments. The suggested adaptive beam forming approach can be used in a 5G system to deal with signal and interference coexistence.
