Abstract

In-band full-duplex, also known as same-frequency simultaneous transmit and receive, requires self-interference cancellation to enable practical operation. This session will present papers on advanced RF/analog cancellers as well as highly-integrated transceivers that provide suppression across multiple domains. These novel techniques and systems should help advance the field of in-band full-duplex, and move the technology towards adoption within a future wireless standard.
