Adaptive antenna array could decay interferences power well , if the total interferences power is more greater than desired signal power. And that, if the interferences power are more large , it will decay the interference more. So that, adaptive antenna array is well applicated in sonar, radar and so on. When the dimension of adaptive weights is large, the amount of calculation is increased rapidly. It results in that adaptive antenna array can't perform well on real time. So that, many kinds of partially adaptive beamformer have been proposed. Van Veen have proposed an method 'eigenstructure base partially adaptive array ' to reduce the adaptive weight dimension. The method is that extract the major signal subspaces from correlation matrix of input data vector to be the reduce order matrix. In this text, we will analyze the partially adaptive beamformer when some errors occur. These errors include steering vector error, weight vector error and constrain angle bias. We will discuss how to choose the adaptive weight dimension properly, when these errors occur. In these analysis, we also find that choosing the dimension properly not only reduces the amount of calculations but also increases the robust of antenna for some error.
