In this paper, a robust mainlobe interference suppression algorithm is proposed in a space-polarization joint domain based on a dual-polarized conformal array. An oblique projection filter can eliminate the interference while retaining the desired signal information. However, little deviation in signal parameters will lead to significant performance degradation. To solve such problems, the joint steering vector of the desired signal is corrected by solving the quadratic convex optimization problem. Parameters of interferences are first estimated by using multiple signal classification (MUSIC) joint spectrum, and then, the interference covariance matrix can be reconstructed individually to further estimate the interference steering vector. After that, the joint oblique projection operator can be established by the estimated steering vectors. Consequently, an antijamming beamformer can be obtained by the joint oblique projection filter to achieve robustness on the interference parameter estimation deviation and desired signal mismatch. Simulation experiments verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
