FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a satellite communication system employing active interference mitigation in order to mitigate co-channel interference between signal users. The communication system includes a receiving or transmitting antenna, having a plurality of antenna elements, each associated with a corresponding antenna element signal. The method includes steps of calculating complex weighting values for one or more of a set of beam signals, adjusting beam signals according to the calculated complex weighting values and mitigating co-channel interference in at least one of the beam signals using one or more adjusted beam signals in order to provide an output signal with mitigated interference. Complex weighting values can be calculated based on a constant modulus algorithm.
EFFECT: reduced effect of interference sources.
