Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to cancel an interfering signal using an analog cancellation stage followed by a digital cancellation stage. In an exemplary embodiment, the interfering signal is processed to determine modulation type for removal in the analog domain. The digital stage provides further interference reduction in the digital domain.
Abstract:
A system and method for processing antenna signals are provided. For example, the method includes, in a receive mode, weighting and combining signals from at least one low-band antenna radiator element operable over a first bandwidth, at least one high-band antenna radiator element operable over a second bandwidth at least partially overlapping the first bandwidth, and, in some examples, at least one antenna radiator element operable over one or more intermediate bandwidths. The method also includes, in a transmit mode, separating and weighting a full-band input port signal into at least one low-band sub-system output port signal, at least one high-band sub-system port output signal, and, in some examples, at least one intermediate sub-system output port signal operable over one or more overlapping intermediate bandwidths. The weighted combination and weighted separation cover an uninterrupted continuous full-band frequency whose extent covers the full frequency range of all subbands.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed towards an analog beamformer multiple beam feed (MBF). The analog beamformer MBF comprises a plurality of encoder elements to receive radiofrequency (RF) signals and generate coded analog signals. The RF signals may be coded using code division multiple access (CDMA) codes. The analog beamformer MBF further comprises a combiner to combine the coded analog signals received from the plurality of encoder elements and a divider to receive the combined coded analog signals and generate a plurality of coded analog outputs. The analog beamformer MBF further comprises a plurality of decoder elements to receive the plurality of coded analog outputs and generate decoded analog signals. In some embodiments, the RF signals may be decoded using CDMA codes. The analog beamformer MBF further comprises a plurality of beamformer elements configured to generate beam outputs corresponding to the decoded analog signals.

Abstract:
System and method for signal modulation. In one embodiment, a circuit includes a channel for carrying an analog RF signal, a phase offset circuit on the channel, and configured to receive a phase code for modifying the analog RF signal to produce a modified RF signal, and a feedforward cancellation path coupled in parallel to the phase offset circuit for canceling a portion of the modified analog signal.
