Abstract

In the future multi-functional detection sensing and communication integrated systems, as well as 5G/6G systems, simultaneous transmit and receive technology, as an important key technology, is an important supporting measure to achieve the simultaneous work of different functions. Looking at the problem of strong self-interference in the simultaneous multi-function application of a phased array transceiver, this paper presents the integrated cancellation architecture and corresponding method of integrated transmission domain, RF domain and digital domain, and completes principle experiment verification of interference suppression and elimination by constructing the principle experiment system. Experimental results show that in the actual hardware system 0.5 db amplitude quantification and 6-bit phase quantization control conditions, through joint using passive and active beam transfer of the domain space optimization form, at the same time in the digital domain application of the adaptive system identification interference cancellation method for further interference cancellation, above 150 dB for interference suppression can be achieved. This research will provide a certain reference for the application of simultaneous transceiver technology in future 5G/6G phased array antenna systems.
