The present application describes a method for characterizing a self-interference channel of a frequency division duplex transceiver including a transmitter and a receiver. The method includes transmitting, from a transmitter of a frequency division duplex transceiver in a transmission band, a transmission signal including a message signal and a swept tone that changes frequency from below an upper edge to above a lower edge of a reception band of a receiver, the self-interference channel being defined between the transmitter and the receiver of the frequency division duplex transceiver, such that at least a portion of the message signal leaks into a signal received the receiver, determining, at an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter of the receiver, an infinite impulse response of the self-interference channel based upon a reception of the swept tone swept at each frequency in the reception band, and estimating the self-interference channel, based upon the infinite impulse response.

Apparatuses (and methods of manufacturing same), systems, and methods for channel interpolation/estimation and/or frequency tracking suitable for a receiver in a high speed single frequency network (HS-SFN) scenario are described. In one aspect, an estimated frequency offset (FO) correction is calculated for a received signal using at least an FO estimation provided by an automatic frequency control (AFC) in a first feedback loop and a channel estimate is calculated using at least the estimated FO and one or more channel parameter estimates from the AFC in a second feedback loop. In another aspect, a phase locked loop (PLL) receives an lth orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol and produces a per-tap phase value for each tap i of the lth OFDM symbol. The per-tap phase values of the lth OFDM symbol are used to generate the PLL output, which is also used as input to a feedback loop.

The present application describes systems and methods of performing self-interference cancellation. According to an embodiment, the method sends a transmit signal through a circulator to substantially isolate the transmit signal from a receiver, with at least a portion of the transmit signal entering a receive path towards the receiver. The method also generates a reflected signal from an antenna. The reflected signal is at substantially less power than an incident power to the antenna. The reflected signal includes a transmitter carrier signal and a transmitter noise. The method also routes a received signal from the antenna to the receiver, and routes the reflected signal through a phase shifter in the receive path. Further, the method combines the reflected, phase shifted transmitter noise with the received signal in the receive path to cancel the portion of the transmit signal that entered the receive path towards the receiver.

A receiver (e.g., for a 10G fiber communications link) includes an interleaved ADC coupled to a multi-channel equalizer that can provide different equalization for different ADC channels within the interleaved ADC. That is, the multi-channel equalizer can compensate for channel-dependent impairments. In one approach, the multi-channel equalizer is a feedforward equalizer (FFE) coupled to a Viterbi decoder, for example a sliding block Viterbi decoder (SBVD); and the FFE and/or the channel estimator for the Viterbi decoder are adapted using the LMS algorithm.
