Summary: 
This paper proposes a new blind adaptive algorithm for computing the weight vector of an antenna array system. The new technique utilizes a Generalized On-Off algorithm to obtain the weight vector from the pilot channel of IS2000 1X system, of which the processing gain can be controlled arbitrarily. The proposed algorithm generates a suboptimal weight vector maximizing the SINR (signal to interference plus noise ratio) with a linear computational load. Based on the analysis obtained from various simulations, it is observed that the proposed algorithm is suitable for the practical IS2000 1X mobile communication environments.
