Abstract:
This disclosure describes techniques for reducing adverse effects of TX signal leakage in a full-duplex, wireless communication device. The techniques make use of a notch filter to reject TX signal leakage in a signal processed in the RX path of the wireless communication device. The notch filter may be constructed as a complex notch filter using passive resistor and capacitor components to produce a notch frequency that attenuates TX signal leakage components in a desired signal. The notch filter may be applied to a down-converted, baseband signal produced by a passive mixer.
