REMOTE COMPENSATORS FOR MOBILE DEVICES

Abstract:

Remote compensators for mobile devices are provided. In certain embodiments, a mobile device includes a cable-side circulator, an antenna, receive amplifier circuitry that amplifies a receive signal from the antenna and provides an amplified receive signal to the cable-side circulator, transmit amplifier circuitry that amplifies a transmit signal from the cable-side circulator, and a first antenna-side circulator and a second antenna-side circulator each coupled between the transmit amplifier circuitry and the antenna. The first antenna-side circulator and the second antenna-side circulator operate to compensate the receive signal for transmit leakage arising from the transmit amplifier circuitry.
