Abstract: A first microwave backhaul assembly comprises a first antenna, a front-end circuit, an inter-backhaul-assembly interface circuit, and an interference cancellation circuit. The first antenna is operable to receive a first microwave signal. The front-end circuit is operable to convert the first microwave signal to a lower-frequency digital signal, wherein the lower-frequency digital signal has energy of a second microwave signal and energy of a third microwave signal. The inter-backhaul-assembly interface circuit is operable to receive information from a second microwave backhaul assembly. The interference cancellation circuit is operable to use the information received via the inter-backhaul-assembly interface circuit during processing of the lower-frequency digital signal to remove, from the first microwave signal, the energy of the third microwave signal. The information received via the inter-backhaul-assembly interface may comprise a signal having energy of the second microwave signal.

The modulator circuit is operable to generate a data-carrying signal based on a reference signal. The test signal generator circuit is operable to generate a test signal based on the reference signal. The control circuit is operable to determine current status of a microwave backhaul link. The control circuit is operable to configure a nominal frequency at which the test signal generator circuit generates the test signal based on the determined status of the microwave backhaul link. The control circuit is operable to determine an amount of whitespace to have on either side of the test signal based on the current status of the microwave backhaul link. The control circuit is operable to configure the modulator circuit such that the data-carrying signal has the determined amount of whitespace surrounding the nominal frequency of the test signal.

Abstract: A transmitter comprises a local oscillator circuit operable to generate a reference signal, a modulator circuit operable to generate a data-carrying signal using the reference signal, and a test signal generator circuit operable to generate a test signal using the reference signal. The test signal has a first bandwidth, and a test signal insertion circuit is operable to combine the data-carrying signal and the test signal to generate a combined signal. An amount of bandwidth in the combined signal allocated to the test signal is greater than the first bandwidth such that a component of the combined signal corresponding to the test signal is bordered by whitespace. A receiver may then use the test signal to determine and correct for phase noise introduced in the transmitter.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiver nonlinearity estimation and cancellation. Narrowband (NB) estimation may be performed in a receiver during handling of received radio frequency (RF) signals. The narrowband (NB) may include generating estimation channelization information relating to received RF signals; generating reference nonlinearity information relating to one or more other signals, which may cause or contribute to nonlinearity that affects the processing of the received RF signals; and generating, based on the estimation channelization information relating to the received RF signals and the reference nonlinearity information relating to the other signals, control data for configuring nonlinearity cancellation functions. The received RF signals may be channelized, and the estimation channelization information may be generated based on the channelization of the received RF signals. The other signals may be channelized, and the reference nonlinearity information may be generated based on the channelization of the other signals.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiver nonlinearity estimation and cancellation. During processing of received radio frequency (RF) signals, it may be determined when one or more other signals, different from the received RF signals, cause nonlinearity affecting processing of the RF signals, and one or more cancellation adjustments may be applied during processing of the RF signals, for mitigating effects of the nonlinearity. Determining the one or more cancellation adjustments may be based on narrowband (NB) estimation of the effects of the nonlinearity, and the one or more cancellation adjustments may be configured as wideband (WB) corrections. The NB estimation may be applied based on channelization of the received RF signals. The NB estimation may comprise generating reference nonlinearity information relating to the one or more other signals, and generating, based on the reference nonlinearity information, control data for configuring the one or more cancellation adjustments.
