Co-time, co-frequency full-duplex terminal and system
View Patent ↗A co-time, co-frequency full-duplex terminal includes a radio frequency transceiver, a power divider, a local transmitting antenna, a controllable adaptive module, and a signal mixer. The radio frequency transceiver transmits a radio frequency signal. The power divider divides the radio frequency signal into radio frequency signals in a first path and a second path. The local transmitting antenna transmits the radio frequency signal in the first path. The controllable adaptive module controls the radio frequency signal in the second path to have an amplitude equal to an amplitude of a self-interfere signal and have a phase opposite to a phase of the self-interference signal. The signal mixer mixes the radio frequency signal, after being controlled by the controllable adaptive module, with a base station signal and the self-interference signal.
