METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING SIGNALS IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17908677 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING SIGNALS IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a method and apparatus for self-interference cancellation in a wireless communication system. The method involves the following steps:

  • Truncating a signal based on a detection window, where the signal includes a receive signal and a self-interference signal associated with a transmit signal. The length of the detection window is shorter than the symbol length.
  • Performing self-interference channel estimation using the truncated signal and a first reference signal carried by the transmit signal. The first reference signal has a comb structure in the frequency domain.
  • Performing self-interference cancellation based on the transmit signal and the estimated self-interference channel.

Potential applications of this technology include:

  • Wireless communication systems where self-interference cancellation is required, such as full-duplex communication systems.
  • Systems where accurate self-interference channel estimation is crucial for efficient cancellation, such as cognitive radio systems.

The problems solved by this technology are:

  • Inter-symbol interference caused by timing misalignment, which can affect the accuracy of self-interference channel estimation. The method reduces this influence by truncating the signal based on a detection window.
  • Self-interference in wireless communication systems, which can degrade the quality of received signals. The method provides a solution for canceling self-interference and improving overall system performance.

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved accuracy of self-interference channel estimation, leading to more effective cancellation of self-interference.
  • Enhanced quality of received signals by reducing self-interference, resulting in improved system performance.
  • Simplified implementation of self-interference cancellation, making it more practical for use in various wireless communication systems.
