Publication number: 20240080050Abstract: Effective radio frequency interference (RFI) mitigation techniques are disclosed for use in wireless communication devices, among others. An RFI mitigation circuit may include a selector circuit to select between a cleaned signal and a clipped signal, and provide the selected signal as an output signal. The RFI mitigation circuit may also include a classifier circuit to generate a control input indication to the selector circuit to have the cleaned signal selected as the output signal based at least on a front-end circuit signal indicating that the front-end circuit is operating linearly and also indicating that the front-end circuit signal includes an interference signal. The classifier circuit may also generate the control input indication to have the clipped signal selected as the output signal based at least on the front-end circuit signal indicating that the front-end circuit is not operating linearly.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: David Arditti Ilitzky, Harry Skinner, Fernando Ramos Alarcon Barroso, Valeri Kontorovich Mazover, Rocio Hernandez Fabian
