Patent ID: 10476655

Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products directed to low latency, bandwidth efficient communications with low duplex spacing (LDS) are provided. The LDS communications are facilitated by partitioning a (e.g., single) channel to include DL and UL portions (or “bandwidth fragments”) with low duplex spacing between the DL and UL portions. Among the new methodologies provided herein is a method that may include partitioning a channel to include a first bandwidth fragment that is bounded by, and overlaps or has low duplex spacing with, a pair of non-overlapping bandwidth fragments that are symmetrically offset symmetrically from a reference frequency associated with the channel; receiving a receive signal while transmitting a transmit signal on either the first bandwidth fragment or the pair non-overlapping bandwidth fragments; and using any of cancellation and interference reduction to reduce a portion of the receive signal that corresponds to the transmit signal.
