RF self-interference cancellation (SIC) relaxes duplexer isolation requirements in frequency-division-duplex (FDD) radios, enabling compact/tunable duplexers. RF SIC is also critical for full-duplex radios where extremely-high levels of SIC must be achieved, necessitating SIC at various points in the receiver chain. While active RF SIC is potentially compact and highly reconfigurable, the use of active circuitry in the canceller introduces noise, distortion and power dissipation challenges.

In this paper, we present recent developments in fully-integrated RF SIC techniques that address these challenges. 978-1-4799-8088-8/15/$31.00 ©2015 IEEE
