Abstract

An interference cancellation repeater configured to cancel an interference signal included in an input signal, the interference cancellation repeater including: a canceller configured to generate an interference canceled signal based on the input signal and an estimated signal; a digital filter configured to filter the interference canceled signal to generate an output signal; an interference signal detector configured to generate interference signal existence interval information using the input signal and the output signal; and an adaptive filter configured to receive the interference canceled signal and the output signal, and generate the estimated signal based on the interference signal existence interval information. Information of the signal existence section.

Claims (29)

1. An interference cancellation repeater configured to cancel an interference signal included in an input signal, the interference cancellation repeater comprising at least one memory and at least one processor to implement:

a canceller configured to generate an interference canceled signal based on the input signal and an estimated signal;

a digital filter configured to filter the interference canceled signal to generate an output signal;

an interference signal detector configured to generate interference signal existence interval information using the input signal and the output signal; and

an adaptive filter configured to receive the interference canceled signal and the output signal, and generate the estimated signal based on the interference signal existence interval information.

2. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 1 , wherein

the interference signal detector is configured to calculate a correlation between the input signal and the output signal, and generate the interference signal existence interval information according to the calculated correlation.

3. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 1 , wherein the adaptive filter comprises:

a filter controller configured to control a filter coefficient for generating the estimated signal based on the interference signal existence interval information; and

an estimated signal generator configured to generate the estimated signal based on the filter coefficient.

4. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 3 , wherein

the interference signal existence interval information includes information about a time interval or a frequency interval in which the interference signal exists in the input signal.

5. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 4 , wherein

the filter controller is configured to control the filter coefficient so as to generate the estimated signal in an interval in which the interference signal exists.

6. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 5 , wherein the at least one memory and the at least one processor further implement:

a delay unit configured to delay an input of the output signal to the adaptive filter until the filter coefficient is generated when the filter controller controls the filter coefficient to generate the estimated signal.

7. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 4 , wherein

the filter controller is configured to control the filter coefficient so as not to generate the estimated signal in an interval in which the interference signal does not exist.

8. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 1 , wherein

the estimated signal is a signal estimated to correspond to the interference signal included in the input signal.

9. An interference cancellation repeater configured to cancel an interference signal included in an input signal, the interference cancellation repeater comprising at least one memory and at least one processor to implement:

a canceller configured to generate an interference canceled signal based on the input signal and an estimated signal;

a digital filter configured to filter the interference canceled signal to generate an output signal;

an interference signal detector configured to detect an interval in which the interference signal exists in the input signal based on the input signal and the output signal; and

an adaptive filter configured to generate the estimated signal based on the interference canceled signal and the output signal in the detected interval.

10. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 9 , wherein

the interference signal detector is configured to calculate a correlation between the input signal and the output signal, and detect a time interval or a frequency interval in which the interference signal exists in the input signal according to the calculated correlation.

11. The interference cancellation repeater of claim 9 , wherein

the adaptive filter is configured to not generate the estimated signal in an interval in which the interference signal does not exist in the input signal.
