Abstract: This paper addresses a novel method of the interference suppression for a uniformly-spaced linear array. Through some virtual translation on the array, received signals may be virtually transformed. And the signals are transformed correspondingly. Then a weight is obtained by a rule of Max SNR. This method overcomes the disadvantage of caliber reduction by the spatial averaging technique. The validity of the method is illuminated by computer simulation.

Key words: uniformly-spaced linear array, dummy translations, interference constraining
