Method for a canceling self interference signal using passive noise cancellation for full-duplex simultaneous (in time) and overlapping (in space) wireless transmission and reception on the same frequency band
View Patent ↗A method for full duplex communication that includes creating a canceling self interference signal using a passive noise cancellation, and attaining full-duplex simultaneous in time and overlapping in space wireless transmission and reception on same frequency band responsive to the step of creating a canceling self interference signal.
1. A method for full duplex wireless communication comprising the steps of:
creating a canceling self interference signal using a passive noise cancellation; and
attaining full-duplex simultaneous in time and overlapping in space wireless transmission and reception on a same frequency band responsive to the step of creating said canceling self interference signal,
wherein said passive noise cancellation comprises analog noise canceller circuits in multiple stages,
wherein a residual of the self interference signal in an output signal of each of said multiple stages is cancelled by subtracting an attenuated version of a transmitted signal from said output signal of each of said multiple stages, and
wherein an average power of the output signal at each stage of the multiple stages is minimized.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the passive noise cancellation is a noise cancellation that is passive and performed successively.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said passive noise cancellation comprises digital noise canceller algorithms.
