Abstract: A system for self-interference cancellation includes a frequency downconverter that decomposes a sampled RF transmit signal into an in-phase transmit signal and a quadrature transmit signal; a first analog vector modulator that scales the transmit signals to generate first scaled transmit signals; a second analog vector modulator that scales delayed transmit signals to generate second scaled transmit signals; a frequency upconverter that recomposes the scaled transmit signals into an RF self-interference cancellation signal; and a receive coupler that that combines the RF self-interference cancellation signal with a RF receive signal to reduce self-interference.
