Abstract

A system for multi-rate digital self-interference cancellation including a signal component generation system coupled to a digital transmit signal of a communication system that generates a set of signal components from the digital transmit signal; a multi-rate adaptive filter that transforms the set of signal components into a digital self-interference cancellation signal, according to a transform configuration, to form an interference-reduced receive signal; and a transform adaptor that dynamically sets the transform configuration in response to changes in the interference-reduced receive signal.

Claims (32)

1. A system for multi-rate digital self-interference cancellation comprising:

a signal component generation system coupled to a digital transmit signal of a communication system that generates a set of signal components from the digital transmit signal, wherein the signal component generation system comprises a first transform path and a second transform path; the first transform path having a component generator of order one, and the second transform path having a component generator of order three; wherein the set of signal components comprises a first signal component of order one and a second signal component of order three;

a multi-rate adaptive filter that transforms the set of signal components into a digital self-interference cancellation signal according to a transform configuration, wherein the digital self-interference cancellation signal is combined with a receive signal of the communication system to form an interference-reduced receive signal; and

a transform adaptor that dynamically sets the transform configuration in response to changes in the interference-reduced receive signal.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the signal component generation system comprises a set of transform paths; wherein each transform path comprises a component generator.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein a first majority of the set of transform paths further comprise an upsampler and a downsampler; wherein a second majority of the set of transform paths further comprise an anti-aliasing filter.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein each transform path further comprises a frequency shifter.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first transform path comprises a downsampler that downsamples by a first factor; wherein the second transform path comprises a downsampler that downsamples by a second factor.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the first factor and the second factor are equal.

7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the second transform path further comprises an upsampler that upsamples by a third factor.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the multi-rate adaptive filter comprises a first filter and a second filter; wherein the self-interference cancellation signal is generated from a combination of outputs of the first filter and the second filter; wherein the first filter transforms only first order signal components; wherein the second filter transforms only non-first order signal components.

9. The system of claim 2 , further comprising a blocker filter that removes undesired components of the self-interference cancellation signal.

10. The system of claim 9 , further comprising a filter inverter coupled to the transform adaptor that reduces the effect of the blocker filter on the interference-reduced receive signal as sampled by the transform adaptor.

11. The system of claim 9 , further comprising a filter inverter coupled to the transform adaptor that reduces the effect of receiver components on the interference-reduced receive signal as sampled by the transform adaptor.

12. The system of claim 2 , further comprising a gain/phase compensator that modifies gain and phase of the digital self-interference cancellation signal to reduce gain/phase error relative to the receive signal.

13. The system of claim 2 , further comprising a gain/phase compensator that modifies gain and phase of the receive signal to reduce gain/phase error relative to the digital self-interference cancellation signal.

14. The system of claim 2 , wherein size of the set of signal components is determined by the transform configuration.

15. The system of claim 2 , wherein the transform adaptor dynamically sets the transform configuration in response to changes in a ratio of a frequency-domain-transformed interference-reduced receive signal to a frequency-domain-transformed digital transmit signal.

16. A method for multi-rate digital self-interference cancellation comprising:

receiving a digital transmit signal of a communication system;

generating a set of signal components, the set of signal components comprising a first signal component of order one and a second signal component of order three, from the digital transmit signal;

transforming the set of signal components into a digital self-interference cancellation signal according to a transform configuration;

combining the digital self-interference cancellation signal with a receive signal of the communication system to form an interference-reduced receive signal; and

dynamically adapting the transform configuration in response to changes in the interference-reduced receive signal.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein generating the first signal component comprises generating the first signal component by upsampling the digital transmit signal; performing signal component generation, according to a self-interference model, on the upsampled digital transmit signal; downsampling the generated signal component; and performing anti-aliasing filtering on the downsampled signal component.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein generating the second signal component comprises generating the second signal component by downsampling the digital transmit signal; and performing anti-aliasing filtering on the downsampled signal.

19. The method of claim 16 , wherein dynamically adapting the transform configuration comprises dynamically adapting the transform configuration in response to changes in a ratio of receive and transmit signals.

20. The method of claim 16 , wherein dynamically adapting the transform configuration comprises dynamically adapting the transform configuration in response to changes in a frequency-domain-converted ratio of receive and transmit signals.

21. The method of claim 16 , wherein dynamically adapting the transform configuration comprises dynamically adapting the transform configuration in response to changes in a time-averaged ratio of receive and transmit signals; wherein the time-averaged ratio is averaged over a first number of samples.

22. The method of claim 21 , wherein dynamically adapting the transform configuration further comprises dynamically changing the first number of samples.

23. The method of claim 22 , wherein dynamically changing the first number of samples comprises increasing the first number of samples in response to a decrease in the time-averaged ratio of receive and transmit signals.
