  • Publication number: 20250096827
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure are directed towards apparatus and techniques for wireless communication. An example apparatus generally includes: a first transmit chain; a first receive chain; a first coupler coupled to the first transmit chain; a second coupler coupled to the first receive chain; a first analog interference cancellation (AIC) circuit having an input coupled to the first coupler and an output coupled to the first receive chain; and a first routing device coupled between the first coupler and the input of the first AIC circuit, the first routing device being further coupled between the first coupler and a digital interference cancellation (DIC) circuit.

  • Publication number: 20240163805
    Abstract: During an uplink TDD slot, an UL UE transmits an UL signal that occupies a slot frequency range. Similarly, during a DL TDD slot, a DL UE receives a DL signal that occupies the slot frequency range. But during an SBFD slot, a UL UE transmits a UL signal that occupies only a first sub-band of the slot frequency range. Similarly, a DL UE receives a DL signal during an SBFD slot that occupies only a second sub-band of the slot frequency range. The second sub-band is distinct from the first sub-band. The DL UE may thus mitigate UE-to-UE interference during an SBFD slot by filtering the DL signal to substantially block the second sub-band from being received at the DL UE.

  • Patent number: 11611422
    Abstract: A base station is disclosed that includes two separated antenna arrays. In a TDD mode of operation, both arrays are used for either transmit or receive. In a sub-band full-duplex mode of operation, one array is used to transmit downlink symbols while the remaining array is used to receive uplink symbols.

  • Patent number: 11582017
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine an energy per resource element (EPRE) value for a slot based at least in part on whether the slot is associated with a half-duplex configuration or a full-duplex configuration, wherein the EPRE value is a first value when the slot is associated with the half-duplex configuration and a second value when the slot is associated with the full-duplex configuration; and perform a communication in the slot in accordance with the EPRE value. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Publication number: 20200374804
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may support two different modes of operation (e.g., a normal transmission efficiency mode, a high transmission efficiency mode, etc.) either controlled by a network or the UE. The UE may transmit an indication of a capability of supporting the different modes of operation, where the network or the UE determine to use which mode of operation to use based on the transmitted capability. For example, the network may transmit an explicit indication of which mode of operation for the UE to use and/or may transmit an indication of the modes of operation, where the UE determines which mode of operation to use after receiving the indication. Additionally, the UE may determine which mode of operation to use based on being scheduled within or outside of a restricted bandwidth allocated to a mode of operation.
