Patent ID: 8761709

Claim:
Method comprising: determining whether and at which frequency at least one of a higher harmonic of and an inter-modulation product with signals generated by at least one component causes interference in a signal received by a receiver, based on information about signals generated by said at least one component, wherein the information is determined directly from signals controlling said at least one component, and wherein said at least one component is at least one component different from said receiver; and adjusting at least one characteristic of said receiver to diminish an influence by a determined interference, wherein the adjustment comprises adjusting a filtering of said signal received by said receiver at least in an analog domain to filter said frequency of said determined interference from said signal received by said receiver, and adjusting an additional filtering in a digital domain, the filtering in the analog domain being effected by an analog component receiving an analog signal as input and the filtering in the digital domain being effected by a digital component receiving a digital signal as input, wherein adiusting at least one characteristic of said receiver comprises: determining a timing at which a higher harmonic of or an inter-modulation product with signals generated by said at least one component causes interference in a signal received by said receiver, based on information about signals generated by said at least one component; and at least one of: interrupting a bit detection, which is performed on said signals received by said receiver, based on said determined timing; and adjusting at least one of a coding and a modulation scheme that is applied to data in said signals received by said receiver synchronized to said determined timing.
