20220416837 · 2022-12-29 ·

Radio frequency (RF) communication systems with interference cancellation for coexistence are provided herein. In certain embodiments, an RF communication system includes a transmitter including a power amplifier that amplifies an RF transmit signal to generate an amplified RF transmit signal, a receiver including a low noise amplifier (LNA) that amplifies an RF receive signal, and an interference cancellation circuit. The interference cancellation circuit includes a filter that generates an analog interference cancellation signal based on filtering the amplified radio frequency transmit signal, a controllable phase circuit that provides a phase adjustment to the analog interference cancellation signal, and a controllable gain circuit that provides a gain adjustment to the analog interference cancellation signal. The interference cancellation circuit injects the analog interference cancellation signal into the LNA to compensate the receiver for interference arising from the transmitter.

Same-aperture any-frequency simultaneous transmit and receive communication system

A same-aperture any-frequency simultaneously transmit and receive (STAR) system includes a signal connector having a first port electrically coupled to an antenna, a second port electrically coupled to a transmit signal path, and a third port electrically coupled to receive signal path. The signal connector passes a transmit signal in the transmit signal path to the antenna and a receive signal in the receive signal path. A signal isolator is positioned in the transmit signal path to remove a residual portion of the receive signal from transmit signal path. An output of the signal isolator provides a portion of the transmit signal with the residual portion of the receive signal removed. A signal differencing device having a first input electrically coupled to the output of the signal isolator and a second input electrically coupled to the third port of the signal connector subtracts a portion of the transmit signal in the receive signal path thereby providing a more accurate receive signal.
