A peer-to-peer power compensation architecture for utility power systems has a ring-pathed power transmission supply line with legs connecting a utility power source to a utility customer load, to a secondary power source, and to the utility customer load. A sinusoidal signal is injected on the first and third legs, with a predetermined amplitude, frequency and phase characteristics, wherein at least one of the characteristics being varied as function of a voltage level and a power factor of supplied power from the respective leg. A controllable power hub with an inverter is coupled to at least the first leg and the third leg, the inverter having at least one DC or AC-based power source. The injected signal's characteristics from the respective leg are evaluated to determine if the power hub's power should be introduced to the leg to compensate for under-voltage conditions.

Systems and methods for canceling cross-coupled satellite signals in a LNB IC include receiving a first satellite signal at a first input of the LNB IC and filtering the first satellite signal using a first adaptive filter, the first adaptive filter having first filter coefficients; combining the adjusted first satellite signal with a second satellite signal received at a second input of the LNB IC to generate a first combined satellite signal; measuring the total output power of the combined satellite signal; changing the filter coefficients of the first adaptive filter; remeasuring the total output power of the first combined satellite signal after the changing of the first filter coefficients to determine whether the total power of the first combined satellite signal has decreased.

A method of reducing the noise from a transmitter at an associated receiver is disclosed. Noise contributions in active channels are identified and used to update a shared noise cancellation filter. Excluding signals from inactive channels speeds up the filter convergence to a near optimal solution. Sharing a filter across multiple channels reduces component count and power consumption.

A radio interference cancellation device that cancels self-interference from a transmitter to a receiver that includes a 2N-way RF power splitter having an input and 2N outputs, a power combiner having 2N+1 inputs and an output, and 2N adaptively controllable attenuators. Each adaptively controllable attenuator is coupled by cables between a different output of the 2N-way RF power splitter and a different input of the power combiner, each cable having a total length selected to provide a delay equal to a different one of mT(m=1,N) and mT+(m=1,N), where T is a delay smaller than the inverse of a bandwidth of the transmitter and receiver, and is f.sub.c, where f.sub.c is the carrier frequency of an RF signal transmitted by the transmitter.

A receiver includes circuitry configured to determine one or more first local oscillator (LO) harmonics that correspond to one or more first spectrum segments of a down-converted received signal based on characteristics of the received signal. The one or more first LO harmonics of the received signal are amplified by applying one or more first transconductance coefficients to one or more first harmonic selective transinductance amplifiers (TIAs) corresponding to the one or more first spectrum segments. Digitized outputs of the plurality of harmonic selective TIAs are calibrated based on an amount of signal leakage between the plurality of spectrum segments of the down-converted received signal.

Methods and devices are provided for processing a received communication signal by a UE using an analog complex filter and using a single analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A control channel of the communication signal may be decoded to determine the frequency range in which a payload channel is located. The UE may then demodulate only the frequency range containing the payload channel. A complex representation of the received payload channel may be provided to the analog complex filter, with the payload channel shifted to a non-zero frequency IF. The analog complex filter may attenuate any portion of the complex representation that falls near IF. The UE may then convert only one component path of the filtered complex representation to a digital signal. A complex representation of the digital signal may then be generated, with the payload channel shifted to DC.

The first filtering circuitry is coupled between the first input/output node and the common node, and is configured to pass RF transmit signals within one or more transmit signal frequency bands while attenuating signals outside the one or more transmit signal frequency bands. The second filtering circuitry is coupled between the second input/output node and the common node, and is configured to pass RF receive signals within one or more receive signal frequency bands while attenuating signals outside the one or more receive signal frequency bands. The transmit signal cancellation circuitry is coupled between the common node and the second input/output node and is configured to generate a transmit cancellation signal from the RF transmit signals.

In some applications network parameters vary over time in a manner that precludes the use of conventional swept frequency network analyzers. Swept measurements incur penalty both in terms of acquisition time, and in terms of registration between measurements taken at the beginning and at the end of a sweep. Disclosed is an architecture and method for real-time analysis of network parameters. Example applications are presented, ranging from thermal drift of amplifiers, to microwave imaging of moving objects, to characterizing materials on conveyors, to characterizing plasma buildup, and many more.
