Abstract: Progressive cancellation of electromagnetic interference (EMI) is achieved by establishing a canceller stage processing order in a receiver feed circuit. Such a processing order may be one that progressively narrows an interference analysis bandwidth around desired target signal and optimizes gain-bandwidth characteristics of a cancellation loop in each canceller stage accordingly. A cancellation signal generated by each canceller stage is adaptively controlled without disturbing the stability of the cancellation loop. By doing so, the residual interference-to-noise ratio at each adaptive canceller stage is optimized independently from the closed cancellation loop control of the other canceller stages resulting in improved interference cancellation in the receiver feed circuit.
