Reference Receiver Based Digital Self-Interference Cancellation in MIMO Full-Duplex Transceivers
In this paper we propose and analyze a novel self-interference cancellation
structure for in-band MIMO full-duplex transceivers. The proposed structure
utilizes reference receiver chains to obtain reference signals for digital
self-interference cancellation, which means that all the transmitter-induced
nonidealities will be included in the digital cancellation signal. To the best
of our knowledge, this type of a structure has not been discussed before in the
context of full-duplex transceivers. First, we will analyze the overall
achievable performance of the proposed cancellation scheme, while also
providing some insight into the possible bottlenecks. We also provide a
detailed formulation of the actual cancellation procedure, and perform an
analysis into the effect of the received signal of interest on
self-interference coupling channel estimation. The achieved performance of the
proposed reference receiver based digital cancellation procedure is then
assessed and verified with full waveform simulations. The analysis and waveform
simulation results show that under practical transmitter RF/analog impairment
levels, the proposed reference receiver based cancellation architecture can
provide substantially better self-interference suppression than any existing
solution, despite deploying only low-complexity linear digital processing.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures. To be presented in the 2014 IEEE Broadband

Feasibility of In-band Full-Duplex Radio Transceivers with Imperfect RF Components: Analysis and Enhanced Cancellation Algorithms
In this paper we provide an overview regarding the feasibility of in-band
full-duplex transceivers under imperfect RF components. We utilize results and
findings from the recent research on full-duplex communications, while
introducing also transmitter-induced thermal noise into the analysis. This
means that the model of the RF impairments used in this paper is the most
comprehensive thus far. By assuming realistic parameter values for the
different transceiver components, it is shown that IQ imaging and
transmitter-induced nonlinearities are the most significant sources of
distortion in in-band full-duplex transceivers, in addition to linear
self-interference. Motivated by this, we propose a novel augmented nonlinear
digital self-interference canceller that is able to model and hence suppress
all the essential transmitter imperfections jointly. This is also verified and
demonstrated by extensive waveform simulations.Comment: 7 pages, presented in the CROWNCOM 2014 conferenc
Secrecy Energy Efficiency of MIMOME Wiretap Channels with Full-Duplex Jamming
Full-duplex (FD) jamming transceivers are recently shown to enhance the
information security of wireless communication systems by simultaneously
transmitting artificial noise (AN) while receiving information. In this work,
we investigate if FD jamming can also improve the systems secrecy energy
efficiency (SEE) in terms of securely communicated bits-per- Joule, when
considering the additional power used for jamming and self-interference (SI)
cancellation. Moreover, the degrading effect of the residual SI is also taken
into account. In this regard, we formulate a set of SEE maximization problems
for a FD multiple-input-multiple-output multiple-antenna eavesdropper (MIMOME)
wiretap channel, considering both cases where exact or statistical channel
state information (CSI) is available. Due to the intractable problem structure,
we propose iterative solutions in each case with a proven convergence to a
stationary point. Numerical simulations indicate only a marginal SEE gain,
through the utilization of FD jamming, for a wide range of system conditions.
However, when SI can efficiently be mitigated, the observed gain is
considerable for scenarios with a small distance between the FD node and the
eavesdropper, a high Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), or for a bidirectional FD
communication setup.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Communication
Self-interference cancellation enabling high-throughput short-reach wireless full-duplex communication
In-band full-duplex (FD) wireless communication allows the simultaneous transmission and reception of data at the same frequency band, effectively doubling the spectral efficiency and data rate while reducing the latency. Previously published designs mostly target the self-interference (SI) cancellation in conventional wireless systems. In this paper, we focus on real-time SI cancellation for short-reach wireless FD systems. The superior signal quality of a point-to-point short-reach wireless system, allows the utilization of wideband communications to achieve a high throughput. Besides, in such wireless systems, the impacts of phase noise and nonlinear distortions are largely reduced, easing the SI cancellation. Moreover, the degradation of signal reception quality due to FD operation is experimentally evaluated in different environments. Experimental results of a prototype implementation show that a combination of antenna isolation and digital cancellation can already achieve an overall SI cancellation performance of 72.5 dB over a bandwidth of 123 MHz. This prototype can support a high-data-rate FD communication link of close to 1 Gbps up to 300 cm with an error vector magnitude lower than -26 dB in a typical indoor environment
Achievable Sum Rates of Half- and Full-Duplex Bidirectional OFDM Communication Links
While full-duplex (FD) transmission has the potential to double the system
capacity, its substantial benefit can be offset by the self-interference (SI)
and non-ideality of practical transceivers. In this paper, we investigate the
achievable sum rates (ASRs) of half-duplex (HD) and FD transmissions with
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), where the non-ideality is
taken into consideration. Four transmission strategies are considered, namely
HD with uniform power allocation (UPA), HD with non-UPA (NUPA), FD with UPA,
and FD with NUPA. For each of the four transmission strategies, an optimization
problem is formulated to maximize its ASR, and a (suboptimal/optimal) solution
with low complexity is accordingly derived. Performance evaluations and
comparisons are conducted for three typical channels, namely symmetric
frequency-flat/selective and asymmetric frequency-selective channels. Results
show that the proposed solutions for both HD and FD transmissions can achieve
near optimal performances. For FD transmissions, the optimal solution can be
obtained under typical conditions. In addition, several observations are made
on the ASR performances of HD and FD transmissions.Comment: To appear in IEEE TVT. This paper solves the problem of sum
