Pre-PA Delay-Line Based FIR Filter for Self-Interference Cancellation in Full Duplex Wireless Systems

In this paper we propose a pre-PA self-interference (SIC) cancellation FIR filter architecture implemented in a quadrature balanced PAs (QBPA) transmitter (TX) for full duplex wireless applications. Pre-PA SIC filter allows for flexible and efficient equalization of the cancellation signal by reusing the TX path, thus eliminating the need to couple TX power and facilitating linearization operations on both the TX and SIC signals.
