Abstract: A wireless communication device includes, in part, an analog interference cancellation circuit and a controller. The analog cancellation circuit includes a multitude of delay paths each including a delay element and a variable attenuator. The controller dynamically varies the attenuation level of each of the variable attenuators in accordance with the frequency response characteristic of that attenuator to remove a portion of a self-interference signal present in a signal received by the device. The device measures the frequency response characteristic of the communication channel, used in determining the attenuation levels, via one or more preamble symbols. A second portion of the self-interference signal is removed by the device using a multitude of samples of a transmitted signal and a multitude of samples of a signal to be transmitted.

Abstract: A circuit that cancels a self-interference signal includes, in part, a pair of signal paths that are substantially in phase, each of which paths includes a passive coupler, a delay element and a variable attenuator. The circuit further includes, in part, a first group of P signal paths each of which is substantially in phase with the pair of paths, a second group of M signal paths each of which is substantially out-of-phase relative to the pair of signal paths, and at least a pair of feedback paths. Each of the P and M signal paths, as well as the feedback paths includes a delay element and a variable attenuator. Optionally, each of the M signal paths is optionally 180° out-of-phase relative to the pair of signal paths.

Furthermore, (P?1) signal paths of the first group of P signal paths, and (M?1) signal paths of the second group of M signal paths include a passive coupler. Optionally, each of the M signal paths is optionally 180° out-of-phase relative to the pair of signal paths.

Abstract: A wireless communication device includes, in part, at least one antenna for receiving or transmitting a signal, and a cancelation circuit adapted to cancel or reduce the self-interference signal. The cancelation circuit includes, in part, a control block, N delay and attenuation paths, a combiner, and a subtractor. Each path includes a delay element and a variable attenuator whose attenuation level varies in response to a control signal generated by the control block. Each path receives a sample of the transmit signal and generates a delayed and attenuated (weighted) version of the sample signal. The combiner combines the N delayed and weighted versions of the sample signal to construct a signal representative of the self-interference signal. The subtractor subtracts the constructed signal from the received signal thereby the cancel or reduce the self-interference signal therefrom.

The method may include receiving a first analog radio frequency signal including a signal of interest and an interference signal caused by a second analog radio frequency signal transmitted in full duplex over a channel from which the first analog transmission is received; combining the first analog radio frequency signal and a portion of the second analog radio frequency signal to generate an output analog radio frequency signal characterized by at least a reduction or an elimination of the interference signal included in the output analog radio frequency signal; and providing the output analog radio frequency signal. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

Abstract: One embodiment is directed to transmitting encoded data over a broadcast medium to improve network throughput. A sending node may identify a first packet to be transmitted to a first network node and a second packet to be transmitted to a second network node. The sending node may determine whether the first network node stores the second packet and whether the second network node stores the first packet. If the sending node determines that the first network node stores the second packet and the second network node stores the first packet, it may code together the first and second packets to generate an encoded packet and may transmit the encoded packet over the broadcast medium. Thus, the first packet may be transmitted to the first network node and the second packet may be transmitted to the second node in a single transmission.
