  Abstract: 
Beamforming with the Sample Matrix Inversion method (SMI),
using an antenna array, is considered  for a GSM-signal.
The problem of generating the reference signal from
the training sequence is addressed. As the proper reference signal to
be used varies with the sampling timing within the symbol 
interval, a modified SMI method is
proposed that uses a ``variable'' reference signal.
 When working with
a short training sequence, as in GSM, the performance of
the standard SMI beamforming method is shown to degrade 
when there is an
offset from the sampling instant that the reference signal was
designed for. The proposed modified SMI method, however, is shown
to be more or less insensitive to where in the symbol
interval the sampling takes place. 
 
The proposed method achieves a
better mean performance, averaged uniformly over one 
symbol interval.
