Abstract:
An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a baseband processor, a digital transmitter, a digital-to-analog-converter (DAC), and an antenna. The baseband processor may produce baseband signals. The digital transmitter may generate self-interference-compensated signals based on the baseband signals. The DAC may generate radio-frequency signals for transmission by the antenna based on the self-interference-compensated signals and square-wave local oscillator waveforms. The digital transmitter may include a self-interference canceller that generates the self-interference-compensated signals. The self-interference-compensated signals may mitigate the creation of self-interferer repetition replicas that land on the carrier frequency of the radio-frequency signals. This may allow the radio-frequency signals to be free from error vector magnitude degradation and spectral regrowth that would otherwise be produced due to self-interference in the radio-frequency signals output by the DAC.
