Suppressing interference in a frequency hopping signal. The method includes receiving a frequency hopping signal for a signal of interest. The frequency hopping signal includes the signal of interest modulated using frequency hopping and wideband and narrowband interference. Prior to de-hopping the frequency hopping signal, one or more wideband interferences in the frequency hopping signal are identified. The one or more wideband interferences are suppressed to create a wideband interference suppressed signal. Subsequent to suppressing the one or more wideband interferences, the wideband interference suppressed signal is de-hopped to create a de-hopped signal. In the de-hopped signal, one or more narrowband interferences are identified. The one or more narrowband interferences are suppressed to create an interference suppressed signal. The interference suppressed signal is demodulated to create a demodulated signal.

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.

A system and method for mitigating self-interference in mmWave systems. A transceiver can include a mutual precoder controller that controls both an analog/RF beamforming circuit and a digital/BB beamforming circuit to prefer beams directed along paths in the local RF environment that minimize self-interference. In other cases, a transceiver can include one or more self-interference filters to internally mitigate self-interference.

This application relates to a full duplex communication device. In one aspect, the device includes a transmission/reception antenna configured to receive a received signal corresponding to a transmitted signal. The device may also include an analog cancellation unit configured to set values of elements constituting an analog cancellation circuit and cancel an interference signal included in the received signal using the set values of the elements constituting the analog cancellation circuit. The device may further include a digital cancellation unit configured to cancel a remaining interference signal included in the received signal. Some embodiments can minimize the influence of distortion of a transmitted signal due to non-linearity of a power amplifier during an active analog self-interference cancellation process.

Examples described herein include methods, devices, and systems which may compensate input data for non-linear power amplifier noise to generate compensated input data. In compensating the noise, during an uplink transmission time interval (TTI), a switch path is activated to provide amplified input data to a receiver stage including a coefficient calculator. The coefficient calculator may calculate an error representative of the noise based partly on the input signal to be transmitted and a feedback signal to generate coefficient data associated with the power amplifier noise. The feedback signal is provided, after processing through the receiver, to a coefficient calculator. During an uplink TTI, the amplified input data may also be transmitted as the RF wireless transmission via an RF antenna. During a downlink TTI, the switch path may be deactivated and the receiver stage may receive an additional RF wireless transmission to be processed in the receiver stage.

The disclosure relates to a communication technique and a system for combining a 5G communication system with IoT technology to support a higher data rate after a 4G system. Based on 5G communication and IoT-related technologies, the disclosure may be applied to intelligent services such as smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart or connected cars, healthcare, digital education, retail, and security and safety related services. The disclosure provides a method and apparatus that enable a communication device supporting full duplex to cancel the self-interference signal in the digital domain.

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) and sub-mmWave technology, apparatuses, and methods that relate to transceivers and receivers for wireless communications are described. The various aspects include an apparatus of a communication device including one or more antennas configured to receive an RF signal and an ADC system. The ADC system includes a 1-bit ADC configured to receive the RF signal, and an ADC controller circuitry configured to measure a number of positive samples in the received RF signal for a plurality of thresholds of the 1-bit ADC, estimate receive signal power associated with the received RF signal based on the measured number of positive samples, determine a direct current(DC) offset in the received RF signal using the estimated received signal power, and adjust the received RF signal based on the determined DC offset.

An apparatus is disclosed, comprising means for determining a noise floor for a radio frequency (RF) system. The apparatus may also comprise means for determining a Passive InterModulation (PIM) value of a component of the RF system contributing as a source of PIM; determining that a passive intermodulation (PIM) cancellation system should be enabled if the PIM value is above a predetermined threshold from the noise floor. The apparatus may also comprise means for determining that the PIM cancellation system should be disabled if the PIM value is at or below the predetermined threshold.

Systems and methods are provided for optimizing offset compensation in a receiver with multiple offset compensation D/A converters. At each stage where offset cancellation is applied, there is a fan-out of two or more. At the final stage, comparator offset compensation codes are summed and compared against a digital reference. In one version the digital reference is zero. A second implementation has a non-zero digital reference which is the sum of comparator offsets stored from start up. The difference between the sum of offsets and digital reference is applied to a digital accumulator. The most significant bits of the digital accumulator are applied to a digital D/A converter, which cancel analog offsets in an intermediate stage of amplifiers. The summation of offsets feeding into an accumulator is implemented for all preceding stages.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving, by a radio frequency (RF) mechanical device, signals relating to one or more crossed-dipole radiating elements of an antenna system, performing, by the RF mechanical device, polarization rotation of the signals to derive output signals having polarizations that are rotated in a manner that mimics physical rotation of the one or more crossed-dipole radiating elements, and providing, by the RF mechanical device, the output signals to enable avoidance of interference. Other embodiments are disclosed.
