Co-Channel Interference Cancellation Using Single Radio Frequency and Baseband Chain

摘要

We present a new architecture for multi-antenna receivers that cancels the co-channel interference (CCI) using a single radio frequency (RF) and baseband (BB) chain, while still achieving nearly the same bit error rate that can be provided by the conventional receiver architecture requiring multiple RF/BB chains. The proposed receiver architecture enables multiple transmitter-receiver pairs to simultaneously communicate in the same frequency band without additional bandwidth, thereby increasing the spectral efficiency or capacity, with significantly reduced receiver complexity and power consumption.
