An analysis of constant modulus algorithm for array signal processing

Abstract The constant modulus (CM) cost function is analyzed for array signal processing. The analysis includes arbitrary source types. It is shown that CM receivers have the signal space property except in two special cases. Local minima of CM cost function are completely characterized for the noiseless case. In the presence of measurement noise, the existence of CM local minima in the neighborhood of Wiener receivers is established, and their mean squared error (MSE) performance, output power, estimation bias and residual interference are evaluated. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effects of signal statistics on the locations of CM local minima.
