The method comprises receiving a first signal, the first signal including a first adjacent channel interferer, and detecting first interference from the first adjacent channel interferer. The method further comprises, subsequent to receiving the first signal, receiving a second signal, the second signal including a second adjacent channel interferer, and detecting second interference from the second adjacent channel interferer. Furthermore, subsequent to detecting the second interference, the VLIF receiver is configured to avoid the first interference while receiving a third signal.
Abstract:
Embodiments include a novel receiver architecture to optimize receiver performance in the presence of interference. In various embodiments, the presence of interference is detected, and the relative frequency location of the interference is detected. The relative frequency location specifies whether the frequency of the interference is high side (above the desired signal, i.e., at a higher frequency) or low side (below the desired signal). The receiver is configured based on the detected interference and relative location thereof. For a device such as a cellular phone that operates in a dynamic and changing environment where interference is variable, embodiments advantageously provide the capability to modify the receiver's operational state depending on the interference.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a first receiver and a second receiver. The first receiver may be configured to generate a plurality of first intermediate frequency signals in response to a radio frequency (RF) input signal and a first local oscillator signal. The second receiver may be configured to generate a plurality of output signals in response to the first intermediate frequency signals. Each of the output signals is generated in an independent channel in response to a respective one of the first intermediate frequency signals and a respective second local oscillator signal.
Abstract:
A modulated signal is demodulated to obtain a modulation signal. The modulated signal is contained within an input signal. A periodic time segment sequence is defined having a plurality of ordered time segments. Signal values are acquired, from the input signal, during each ordered time segment. Signal values acquired during each ordered time segment are combined with signal values acquired during the same ordered time segment over multiple periods of the periodic time segment sequence. The modulated signal is demodulated by executing mathematical steps on the combined signal values to obtain the modulation signal.
Abstract:
Method and multi carrier receiver for removing interference from a RF-signal. In a multi carrier receiver with a heterodyne receiver structure, the RF-signal is received from a multi carrier transmitting entity. The RF-signal comprises a data part an interference part. The interference part is detected by means of the interference unit, and a frequency and a power level of the interference part is determined. A frequency of a first LO is adjusted, such that an output signal of a first mixer is frequency shifted towards an upper edge or a lower edge of a first IF bandpass filter when the determined power level exceeds a predetermined threshold. By detecting an interference part of an incoming RF-signal and controlling a local oscillator based on the detected interference, an effective and flexible solution is achieved for removing interference from the RF-signal.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media are disclosed for providing interference rejection in ultra-wideband real time locating systems. In one embodiment, an ultra-wideband (UWB) receiver is configured to: receive an interference signal from a source positioned outside a monitored region; receive a composite signal transmitted from a tagged object moving about a playing field within the monitored region, wherein the composite signal comprises a location signal and a component of the interference signal; detect whether the component of the interference signal exceeds a threshold value; and adjust, via a processor, filtering of the composite signal to attenuate the component of the interference signal based on whether the component of the interference signal exceeds the threshold value. Some embodiments provide for filtering of the composite signal using a combiner while others employ a tunable notch filter.
