Patent ID: 10014914

Abstract:
An interference canceller and a method for canceling interference are disclosed. The interference canceller includes: a subtractor to receive a primary signal including a desired signal and multiple interferers and to generate an output signal including the desired signal; a plurality of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters, wherein each FIR filter receives a reference signal from a plurality of reference signals and outputs a filtered reference signal; and a plurality of loop filters, wherein each loop filter outputs coefficients. In the interference canceller, each of the reference signals includes signals from a subset of the multiple interferers, each loop filter corresponds to one of the FIR filters and receives the corresponding reference signal, each loop filter receives the output signal, the output coefficients of each loop filter are based on the output signal and the corresponding reference signal, the output coefficients adaptively adjust the filtered reference signal of the corresponding FIR filter, and the subtractor subtracts each of the filtered reference signals from the primary signal to generate the output signal.
