    摘要: This disclosure describes techniques for reducing adverse effects of transmit signal leakage in a full-duplex, wireless communication system. The disclosure describes techniques for reducing adverse effects of second order distortion and cross-modulation distortion of transmit signal leakage from a transmitter via a duplexer. The techniques may be effective in rejecting at least a portion of a transmit leakage signal, thereby reducing or eliminating distortion. The adaptive filter may include an estimator circuit that generates a transmit leakage signal estimate. A summer subtracts the estimate from the received signal to cancel transmit leakage and produce an output signal. The estimator circuit generates the transmit leakage signal estimate based on a reference signal and feedback from the output signal. The reference signal approximates the carrier signal used to generate the transmit signal in the transmitter. The reference signal may be provided by the same oscillator used to produce the transmit carrier signal.

    摘要: Exemplary embodiments of the invention disclose signal filtering. In an exemplary embodiment, a filter device may comprise a subtractor operably coupled between an input and an output and configured to receive an input signal comprising a desired component and at least one undesired frequency component. The filter device may further include a feedback loop configured to receive at least one of the input signal and an output signal from the subtractor and convey a feedback signal comprising at least one undesired component to the subtractor. Each undesired component of the feedback signal corresponds to an associated undesired component of the input signal. Furthermore, the subtractor subtracts the feedback signal from the input signal and convey the output signal.

    摘要: A communication channel has a highly linear switched current mixer that incorporates passive filtering (e.g., low pass, notch) for improved transmitting (Tx) and receiving (Rx) with adding external filtering components. A high IIP2 (input referenced second order intercept point) of the receiver at the Tx offset is essential to avoid corrupting the system's sensitivity performance, and a high triple beat (TB) is required to avoid sensitivity degradation due to transmitter leakage. Thanks to the embedded filtering in the mixer and the active post-distortion (APD) method in a low noise amplifier (LNA), the required high linearity is achieved with low noise figure and power consumption, overcoming transmitter power leakage without the use of a SAW (surface acoustic wave) filter.

    摘要: A differential amplifier, which has good linearity and noise performance, includes a first side that includes first, second, third, and fourth transistors and an inductor. The first and second transistors are coupled as a first cascode pair, and the third and fourth transistors are coupled as a second cascode pair. The third transistor has its gate coupled to the source of the second transistor, and the fourth transistor has its drain coupled to the drain of the second transistor. The first transistor provides signal amplification. The second transistor provides load isolation and generates an intermediate signal for the third transistor. The third transistor generates distortion components used to cancel third order distortion component generated by the first transistor. The inductor provides source degeneration for the first transistor and improves distortion cancellation. The sizes of the second and third transistors are selected to reduce gain loss and achieve good linearity for the amplifier. The differential amplifier also may include a second side that functions similarly to the first side.

    摘要: An active phase splitter comprises two or more phase shift circuits. Each phase shift circuit comprises a number of active devices and capacitors. For a single-pole active phase splitter, within each phase shift circuit, two active devices are configured as a cascode amplifier. The first active device is configured as a common source amplifier and the second active device is configured as a common gate amplifier. A capacitor is connected across the gate and drain of the first active device to generates the necessary pole-zero pair for the phase shift circuit. The cascode configuration results in the desired transfer function and provides transconversion of voltage input to current outputs. Active phase splitters with two or more poles can be built using the same inventive concept.
