RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) DEVICES WITH RESONANT CIRCUITS TO REDUCE COUPLING
The embodiments described herein use resonant circuits to provide isolation between closely proximate conductors. For example, these resonant circuits can be used to reduce unwanted electromagnetic coupling and minimize crosstalk energy between package leads, bonding wires, and circuit board traces on radio frequency (RF) electronic devices, including RF power amplifiers. To facilitate a reduction in electromagnetic coupling, the resonant circuit is configured resonate with the closely proximate conductors at a selected frequency f.sub.0, and when resonating at the selected frequency f.sub.0 the resonant circuit provides a path to ground for the crosstalk energy. This path to ground reduces the crosstalk energy that would otherwise be shared between the two closely proximate conductors, and thus provides the electromagnetic isolation between the conductors.

RADAR TRANSCEIVER WITH PHASE NOISE CANCELLATION
A method for cancelling phase noise in a radar signal is described herein. In accordance with one embodiment, the method includes transmitting an RF oscillator signal, which represents a local oscillator signal including phase noise, to a radar channel and receiving a respective first RF radar signal from the radar channel. The first RF radar signal included at least one radar echo of the transmitted RF oscillator signal. Further, the method includes applying the RF oscillator signal to an artificial radar target composed of circuitry, which applies a delay and a gain to the RF oscillator signal, to generate a second RF radar signal. The second RF radar signal is modulated by a modulation signal thus generating a frequency-shifted RF radar signal. Further, the method includes subtracting the frequency-shifted RF radar signal from the first RF radar signal.
