SIMULTANEOUS MULTI-POLARIZATION RECEIVING WITH CROSS-POLARIZATION INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION
Techniques described herein provide cancelation of cross-polarization interference during simultaneous receipt of radiofrequency signals (e.g., an X-signal and a Y-signal) in a same frequency channel in nominally orthogonal polarizations. Though nominally orthogonally polarized, each signal contributes some cross-polarization interference to the other. Embodiments receive and demodulate each signal by a corresponding demodulator to generate corresponding X-symbol and Y-symbol decision signals, referenced to a common clock domain. An X-channel adaptive canceler (X-CAC) generates an X-output signal by using one or more Y-symbol decision signals adaptively to cancel cross-polarization interference from the Y-signal, and a Y-CAC generates a Y-output signal by using one or more X-symbol decision signals adaptively to cancel cross-polarization interference from the X-signal (e.g., the X-CAC and the Y-CAC each using a first-order least mean squares control loop). The resulting X-output signal and Y-output signal can be further decoded and output by the receiver to downstream systems and/or components.
Frequency domain adaptation with dynamic step size adjustment based on analysis of statistic of adaptive filter coefficient movement
An adaptive filter includes a frequency domain adaptation block that analyzes a statistic of coefficient movement in the frequency domain. The adaption block adjusts, in the frequency domain, a parameter (step size or leakage factor) that affects speed of convergence of the adaptive filter based on the analyzed statistic of filter coefficient movement. The filter includes an associated coefficient, statistic of coefficient movement, and parameter for each frequency bin. The coefficients may be complex numbers, and separate real and imaginary statistics and parameters are maintained. The statistic may be direction counts of the filter coefficient movement. The step size may be adjusted to a predetermined minimum value when the current direction of movement of the filter coefficient is different than the predominant direction and otherwise the step size is adjusted approximately proportionally to an amount of predominance by a value based on a direction count of the filter coefficient movement.
