Abstract-Full Duplex or Simultaneous transmission and reception (STR) in the same frequency at the same time can potentially double the physical layer capacity. However, high power transmit signal will appear at receive chain as echoes with powers much higher than the desired received signal. Therefore, in order to achieve the potential gain, it is imperative to cancel these echoes. As these high power echoes can saturate low noise amplifier (LNA) and also digital domain echo cancellation requires unrealistically high resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC), the echoes should be cancelled or suppressed sufficiently before LNA. In this paper we present a closed-loop echo cancellation technique which can be implemented purely in analogue domain. The advantages of our method are multiplefold: it is robust to phase noise, does not require additional set of antennas, can be applied to wideband signals and the performance is irrelevant to radio frequency (RF) impairments in transmit chain. Next, we study a few protocols for STR systems in carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) network and investigate MAC level throughput with realistic assumptions in both single cell and multiple cells. We show that STR can reduce hidden node problem in CSMA network and produce gains of up to 279% in maximum throughput in such networks. Moreover, at high traffic load, the gain of STR system can be tremendously large since the throughput of non-STR system is close to zero at heavy traffic due to severe collisions. Finally, we investigate the application of STR in cellular systems and study two new unique interferences introduced to the system due to STR, namely BS-BS interference and UE-UE interference. We show that these two new interferences will hugely degrade system performance if not treated appropriately. We propose novel methods to reduce both interferences and investigate the performances in system level. We show that BS-BS interference can be suppressed sufficiently enough to be less than thermal noise power, and with favorable UE-UE channel model, capacities close to double are observed both in downlink (DL) and uplink (UL). When UE-UE interference is larger than DL co-channel interferences, we propose a simple and "non-cooperative" technique in order to reduce UE-UE interference.
In this article, we address the challenges of transmitter-receiver isolation in mobile full-duplex devices, building on shared-antenna based transceiver architecture. Firstly, self-adaptive analog RF cancellation circuitry is required, since the capability to track time-varying self-interference coupling characteristics is of utmost importance in mobile devices. In addition, novel adaptive nonlinear DSP methods are also required for final self-interference suppression at digital baseband, since mobile-scale devices typically operate under highly nonlinear low-cost RF components.In addition to describing above kind of advanced circuit and signal processing solutions, comprehensive RF measurement results from a complete demonstrator implementation are also provided, evidencing beyond 40 dB of active RF cancellation over an 80 MHz waveform bandwidth with a highly nonlinear transmitter power amplifier. Measured examples also demonstrate the good self-healing characteristics of the developed control loop against fast changes in the coupling channel. Furthermore, when complemented with nonlinear digital cancellation processing, the residual self-interference level is pushed down to the noise floor of the demonstration system, despite the harsh nonlinear nature of the self-interference. These findings indicate that deploying the full-duplex principle can indeed be feasible also in mobile devices, and thus be one potential technology in, e.g., 5G and beyond radio systems.
Abstract-This paper presents a novel RF circuit architecture for self-interference cancellation in inband full-duplex radio transceivers . The developed canceller is able to provide wideband cancellation with waveform bandwidths in the order of 100 MHz or beyond and contains also self-adaptive or self-healing features enabling automatic tracking of time-varying self-interference channel characteristics. In addition to architecture and operating principle descriptions, we also provide actual RF measurements at 2.4 GHz ISM band demonstrating the achievable cancellation levels with different bandwidths and when operating in different antenna configurations and under low-cost highly nonlinear power amplifier. In a very challenging example with a 100 MHz waveform bandwidth, around 41 dB total cancellation is obtained while the corresponding cancellation figure is close to 60 dB with the more conventional 20 MHz carrier bandwidth. Also, efficient tracking in time-varying reflection scenarios is demonstrated.
Because the characteristics of wireless propagation channels (especially indoor channels) are too diverse and complex, the distance estimation strategy of range-based positioning techniques should adaptively change depending on the environment. In this paper, we study unsupervised learning techniques that efficiently do this without human intervention. As users simply move around an area of interest with mobile devices, the proposed method autonomously learns the characteristics of the surrounding environments and changes the ranging strategy accordingly. To this end, we use either model-based or neural network (NN)-based ranging modules for estimating the distance from neighboring anchor nodes, calculate the position of the devices using trilateration techniques, and define cost functions that indirectly evaluate the accuracy of the ranging module based on the trilateration results. Moreover, by assigning a unique trainable variable to each device, the proposed method is also able to compensate for different characteristics between devices without ground truth data. The performance of the proposed method is verified with a real-time location tracking application using received signal strength (RSS) measurements from conventional Wi-Fi access points (APs) or round trip time (RTT) measurements from APs that support the fine timing measurement (FTM) protocol. In cases where a model-based ranging module is used, the proposed method closely achieves the benchmark performance, which perfectly optimizes all the trainable variables on the test data. If NNs are adopted in the ranging module, the proposed method even outperforms the benchmark and achieves an average positioning accuracy of up to 2.397 m using RSS measurements, and up to 1.547 m using RTT measurements under the 40 MHz bandwidth configuration.

This article investigates novel adaptive self-interference cancellation solutions and the total integrated cancellation performance of a mobile single-antenna inband full-duplex transceiver. First, novel self-adaptive digital self-interference cancellation algorithms are described, with an emphasis on tracking of time-varying self-interference coupling channel in a mobile device as well as on structural ability to suppress also nonlinear self-interference with highly nonlinear mobile power amplifiers. This leads to an advanced self-adaptive nonlinear digital canceller which utilizes a novel orthogonalization procedure for nonlinear basis functions, together with low-cost LMS-based parameter learning. The achievable self-interference cancellation performance is then evaluated with actual RF measurements using mobile device scale RF components, in particular a highly nonlinear PA. The measurements also incorporate a novel selfadaptive RF cancellation circuit in order to realistically assess the total integrated cancellation performance. The reported results show that highly efficient self-interference cancellation can be achieved also in a mobile device, despite a heavily nonlinear PA and limited computing and hardware resources. The proposed cancellation solutions, when integrated together, show that 100 dB of self-interference can be cancelled using a 20 MHz LTE waveform, while the SI can be attenuated by over 110 dB with a narrower bandwidth of 1.4 MHz, all measured at 2.4 GHz ISM band. Furthermore, these results are achieved using a highly nonlinear transmitter power amplifier and fully adaptive canceller structures which can track a rapidly changing coupling channel in a mobile full-duplex device.
