ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are an adaptive beamforming apparatus and method that despreads an input signal, and determines whether a symbol of despread signal belongs to a pilot sub-channel or non-pilot sub-channel of the despread signal. One of two beamforming algorithms is accordingly enabled. If the symbol belongs to the pilot sub-channel, a first algorithm is used to calculate a weight vector, and if the symbol belongs to the non-pilot sub-channel, a second algorithm is used to calculate the weight vector. A current weight vector is updated using newly calculated weight vector, and a beam pattern is formed based on the updated weight vector.
