A method uses an electromagnetic navigation system, including a number of field transmitters and at least one receiver. The method includes receiving a field signal from the at least one receiver, and the field signal includes a number of different frequencies corresponding to each of the field transmitters. The received field signal is multiplied by a synchronization signal using a frequency-division multiplexing scheme, and the received field signal is integrated over a predetermined sampling interval and converted into an integrated signal having only a desired signal based on the synchronization signal. The integrated signal is outputted for subsequent processing of the electromagnetic navigation system.

A method for operating a device includes determining adaptation criteria for a waveform to be transmitted by a transmitting device over a communications channel towards a receiving device, and adjusting a generalized multi-carrier multiplexing parameter (GMMP) of the waveform in accordance with the adaptation criteria. The method also includes transmitting an indicator of the adjusted GMMP to at least one of the transmitting device and the receiving device.

Various embodiments of the system and method relate to improvements in co-channel interference mitigation in shared spectrum environments operating under the aegis of a Spectrum Access System and companion database. Implementation orchestrates, detects, and obtains noise measurements from a potentially-affected receiver utilizing programmed reduction of transmitted power from a potential interferer when the two entities connect over the Internet or other communication network. Receivers and transmitters may use the method with the same or different Physical Layers (PHYs) and protocols. In one embodiment, a momentary reduction of transmitter power is noted during which putative interference is measured at the receiver. In another embodiment, an isolated burst is sent from a not-yet commissioned transmitter to contemporaneously detect possible interference at an operating receiver. A third embodiment can be used to measure and mitigate interference from a stationary mobile transmitter. A fourth embodiment establishes hosting for potential interference recognition as a service.

Frequency independent isolation of duplexed ports in distributed antenna systems (DASs) is disclosed. Instead of providing a duplexer in a DAS that provides frequency dependent separation between downlink and uplink communications signals, an isolation circuit is provided. The isolation circuit is coupled to a duplexed port that provides downlink communications signals to the DAS and receives uplink communications signals from the DAS. To isolate uplink communications signals from the downlink communications path, the isolation circuit includes a directional coupler. The directional coupler provides frequency independent isolation between uplink communications signals and a downlink communications path in the DAS. Further, to isolate downlink communications signals from the uplink communications path, the isolation circuit includes at least one circulator isolator. The circulator(s) acts as a one-direction device, allowing uplink communications signals to flow to the directional coupler with minimal attenuation while significantly attenuating downlink communications signals flowing from the directional coupler.
