In this paper, we investigate how Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) and beam patterns affect both conventional beamforming and Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR) algorithms. We thoroughly examine how these factors impact beamforming performance and explore their applications in different scenarios. The conventional beamformer typically uses a simple delay-and-sum approach implemented through array steering vectors, while MVDR employs covariance matrix inversion with diagonal loading for numerical stability. Additionally, we discuss optimization strategies for SINR and beam patterns to achieve superior beamforming results. By conducting in-depth research into these key concepts, we can better understand their roles in communication systems and provide more insights and directions for future research. Implementation considerations include proper covariance matrix estimation techniques and constraint handling for mainlobe preservation.
