%X In this report, an easily-reconfigurable and low-complexity antenna architecture is considered where a set of radio-frequency switches is exploited to either connect or disconnect the array elements for controlling the radiation pattern and generating deep nulls along the directions-of-arrival of the undesired signals. The mathematical formulation together with a preliminary validation of the adaptive nulling strategy are proposed.
