    Abstract: A method for reciprocal-mixing noise cancellation may include receiving, from a first mixer, a first signal comprising a wanted signal at a first frequency and a modulated signal at a second frequency. The modulated signal may be a product of a reciprocal-mixing of an unwanted signal with a phase noise. One or more portions of the modulated signal may overlap the wanted signal, adding a reciprocal-mixing noise to the wanted signal. A second signal may be generated by mixing, at a second mixer, the first signal with a third signal, which is at a third frequency related to a blocker offset frequency. A gain may be applied to the second signal to generate an amplified second signal that may be subtracted from the first signal to generate a fourth signal. The fourth signal may be filtered to generate the wanted signal at the first frequency without the reciprocal-mixing noise.

    Abstract: A method for reciprocal-mixing noise cancellation may include receiving a baseband signal down-converted to baseband using a local oscillator (LO). The baseband signal may comprise a wanted signal and a reciprocal mixing noise, which at least partially overlaps the wanted signal and is due to mixing of a blocker signal with a phase noise of the LO. Blocker recovery may be performed on the baseband signal and a blocker estimate signal may be generated from the baseband signal. The phase noise of the LO may be measured and used in generating a phase noise measurement signal. The blocker estimate signal and the phase noise measurement signal may be processed to generate a reconstructed noise signal that may comprise the overlapping reciprocal mixing noise. The reconstructed noise signal may be subtracted from the baseband signal to provide the wanted signal free from to the reciprocal mixing noise.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a compact low-power receiver comprises a front-end producing a front-end gain and a back-end producing a back-end gain. The front-end includes a transconductance amplifier providing digital gain control and outputting an amplified receive signal, a mixer for generating a down-converted signal from the amplified receive signal, and a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) including a current mode buffer. The TIA provides gain control for amplifying the down-converted signal to produce a front-end output signal. In one embodiment, the back end includes a second-order low-pass filter to produce a filtered signal from the front-end output signal and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), wherein the filtered signal is fed directly to the ADC without direct-current (DC) offset cancellation being performed. In various embodiments, the front-end gain is substantially greater than the back-end gain.

    Abstract: A circuit for a low-loss electrical balance duplexer (EBD) with noise cancellation may include an EBD circuit. The EBD circuit may be coupled to one or more output nodes of a transmit (TX) path, an antenna, and a one or more input nodes of a receive (RX) path. The EBD circuit may be configured to isolate the TX path from the RX path, and to provide low-loss signal paths between the one or more output nodes of the TX path and the antenna. A balancing network may be coupled to the EBD circuit and configured to provide an impedance that matches an impedance associated with the antenna. A noise cancellation circuit may be configured to sense a noise signal generated by the balancing network, and to use the sensed noise signal to improve a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the RX path.
