Fundamental Efficiency Limit Of Passive Non-Magnetic Self-Interference Suppression In Full-Duplex Radios, Adam Narbudowicz, Giuseppe Ruvio, Max Ammann, Nicola Marchetti Jan 2018

Fundamental Efficiency Limit Of Passive Non-Magnetic Self-Interference Suppression In Full-Duplex Radios, Adam Narbudowicz, Giuseppe Ruvio, Max Ammann, Nicola Marchetti

Conference Papers

Passive non-magnetic self-interference suppression circuits are currently used as first stages of complex full-duplex radio systems that allow simultaneous reception and transmission within the same channel. This paper introduces the upper efficiency limit for such circuitry. It is demonstrated that for these devices it is not feasible to have simultaneously high efficiency, good transmitter-to-receiver isolation and same propagation channel for transmission and reception. More specifically, the maximum efficiency for most typical case cannot exceed 50% if good isolation is obtained.

On The Use Of Wheeler Cap For Mimo Antennas, Florian Reher, Adam Narbudowicz, Max Ammann, Dirk Heberling

Conference Papers

A new equivalent circuit based Wheeler Cap method to calculate MIMO efficiency is introduced. The method works without the necessity for interpolation by avoiding concur of resonating and cavity modes. The method is tested with a set of three differently correlated MIMO antennas. Results are compared with the recently proposed quality factor method for MIMO antennas and efficiency data from spherical near field measurements.
