  • Publication number: 20240073068
    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed that implements interference and/or clutter cancellation using cross-channel equalization. In example aspects, the apparatus includes a wireless transceiver configured to be connected to multiple feed ports. The wireless transceiver is also configured to transmit an electromagnetic signal using a first feed port of the multiple feed ports. A modulated spur is generated based on the transmission of the electromagnetic signal. The wireless transceiver is additionally configured to receive two versions of a receive signal respectively via two feed ports of the multiple feed ports. The receive signal comprises the modulated spur and a mutual-coupling component associated with the transmission of the electromagnetic signal. The wireless transceiver is further configured to generate a filtered signal by attenuating the mutual-coupling component and the modulated spur within one of the two versions of the receive signal using cross-channel equalization.

  • Publication number: 20230273296
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless device may transmit a frequency-modulated continuous-waveform (FMCW) dual ramp radar signal over a time duration that sweeps from a first frequency to a second frequency and from the second frequency to the first frequency. The wireless device may receive a reflection of the radar signal with a first reflected part that corresponds to the first part of the radar signal and a second reflected part that corresponds to the second part of the radar signal. The wireless device may compare the first reflected part and a time-inverted version of the second reflected part to estimate a noise pattern. The wireless device may perform an action based at least in part on the noise pattern. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Patent number: 9484974
    Abstract: The various embodiments include methods and apparatuses for canceling nonlinear interference during concurrent communication of multi-technology wireless communication devices. Nonlinear interference may be estimated using a multilayer perceptron neural network with Hammerstein structure by dividing an aggressor signal into real and imaginary components, augmenting the components by weight factors, executing a linear combination of the augmented components, and executing a nonlinear sigmoid function for the combined components at a hidden layer of multilayer perceptron neural network to produce a hidden layer output signal. At an output layer, hidden layer output signals may be augmented by weight factors, and the augmented hidden layer output signals may be linearly combined to produce real and imaginary components of an estimated jammer signal.

  • Publication number: 20160071003
    Abstract: The various embodiments include methods and apparatuses for cancelling nonlinear interference during concurrent communication of dual-technology wireless communication devices. Nonlinear interference may be estimated using a multilayer perceptron neural network by augmenting aggressor signal(s) by weight factors, executing a linear combination of the augmented aggressor signals, and executing a nonlinear sigmoid function for the combined aggressor signals at a hidden layer of multilayer perceptron neural network to produce a hidden layer output signal. Multiple hidden layers may repeat the process for the hidden layer output signals. At an output layer, hidden layer output signals may be augmented by weight factors, and the augmented hidden layer output signals may be linearly combined to produce an estimated nonlinear interference used to cancel the nonlinear interference of a victim signal. The weight factors may be trained based on a determination of an error of the estimated nonlinear interference.
