  • Patent number: 5574978
    Abstract: A radio system and interference cancellation system for use with the radio system include a receiving radio and a transmitting radio which are coupled to a common antenna. A reference coupler provides a reference signal in response to the signal transmitted by the transmitting radio and provides the reference signal to a vector modulator and a synchronous detector. A receiver coupler is responsive to the transmitted signal which is reflected by the antenna and to the signal which is desired to be received and provides a received signal containing an interfering signal component and a desired signal component. An error coupler samples the received signal which includes any residual interfering signal component after cancellation, and provides an error signal to the synchronous detector. The synchronous detector compares the reference signal with the error signal and provides a detector output to the vector modulator.
