Systems and methods for efficiently-transformed digital self-interference cancellation
An efficiently-transformed digital self-interference canceller, preferably including an FD transformer, a TD transformer, a channel estimator, a composer, and a controller. The canceller can optionally include a channel memory, a predictor, and/or an extender. A method for digital self-interference cancelation, preferably including receiving inputs, transforming the inputs, generating outputs based on the transformed inputs, transforming the outputs, and/or generating a cancellation signal based on the outputs.
Duplexer with impedance inverters
A duplexer may be used to isolate a transmitter and a receiver that share a common antenna. By using impedance gradients to provide impedances that cause balance-unbalance transformers (balun) of the duplexer to cut-off access to the common antenna rather than duplicate the antenna impedance, the duplexer is balanced. Such cut-offs may have a lower insertion loss than a duplexer that merely duplicates the antenna impedance to separate the differential signals of the receiver and transmitter from the common mode signal.
