Method for cancelling self-interference of in-band full-duplex multiple-input multiple-output wireless communication
An operation method of an in-band full duplex (IFD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transceiver, including a reception part, a transmission part, an analog self-interference (SI) generator, and a self-interference cancellation (SIC) controller, may comprise generating, at the SIC controller, a control signal for analog SIC and digital SIC and outputting the control signal to the reception part and the analog SI generator; cancelling, at the SIC controller, SI of a transmission signal of the transmission part based on the control signal; and cancelling, at the reception part, SI of a signal of the reception part based on the control signal.
1. An operation method of an in-band full duplex (IFD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transceiver including a reception part, a transmission part, an analog self-interference (SI) generator, and a self-interference cancellation (SIC) controller, the operation method comprising:
receiving, at the SIC controller, a signal for transmission signal forming;
generating, at the SIC controller, a control signal for analog SIC and digital SIC and outputting the control signal to the reception part and the analog SI generator;
cancelling, at the SIC controller, SI of a transmission signal of the transmission part based on the control signal and the signal for the transmission signal forming; and
cancelling, at the reception part, SI of a signal of the reception part based on the control signal,
wherein, the signal for the transmission signal forming is an oversampled signal of the transmission signal.
2. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the signal for the transmission signal forming is generated by a baseband MIMO transmitter in the transmission part.
3. The operation method according to claim 2 , wherein the cancelling at the SIC controller further comprises forming, at the SIC controller, the transmission signal of the transmission part and outputting the formed transmission signal to a transmission (TX) digital-to-analog converter (DAC) in the transmission part.
4. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the SIC controller outputs the control signal to a digital SI canceller in the reception part.
5. The operation method according to claim 4 , wherein the digital SI canceller cancels SI from the signal of the reception part based on the control signal.
6. The operation method according to claim 5 , further comprising outputting, at the digital SI canceller, the signal of the reception part from which the SI has been cancelled to a baseband MIMO receiver in the reception part.
7. An operation method of an in-band full duplex (IFD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transceiver including a reception part, a transmission part, an analog self-interference (SI) generator, and a self-interference cancellation (SIC) controller, the operation method comprising:
generating, at the SIC controller, a control signal for analog SIC and digital SIC and outputting the control signal to the reception part and the analog SI generator;
cancelling, at the SIC controller, SI of a transmission signal of the transmission part based on the control signal; and
cancelling, at the reception part, SI of a signal of the reception part based on the control signal,
wherein the control signal is generated based on an output signal of the analog SI generator and an output signal of a reception (RX) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in the reception part.
