Abstract:
Here we present a combined RF hardware/DSP technique to synthesize effective channel diversity in single-antenna wireless systems. This allows digital suppression of out-of-band interference artifacts in widely tunable wireless receivers with one or more antennas, including artifacts from LO phase noise. A passive inductor-capacitor (LC) network provides gain and phase diversity between channels and across frequency. Since amplitude and phase of in-band artifacts are set by the amplitude and phase of the out-of-band interference that generates them, they can be suppressed in DSP without knowledge about the interferer itself. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated mathematically, with numerical system simulations, and full circuit simulation.
