Full-Duplex Beyond Self-Interference: The Unlimited Sensing Way

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The success of full-stack full-duplex communication systems depends on how effectively one can achieve digital self-interference cancellation (SIC). Towards this end, in this letter, we consider unlimited sensing framework (USF) enabled full-duplex system. We show that by injecting folding non-linearities in the sensing pipeline, one can not only suppress self-interference but also recover the signal of interest (SoI). This approach leads to novel design of the receiver architecture that is complemented by a modulo-domain channel estimation method. We then demonstrate the advantages of$\mathscr {M}_{\lambda } $-ADC by analyzing the relationship between quantization noise, quantization bits, and dynamic range. Numerical experiments show that the USF enabled receiver structure can achieve up to 40 dB digital SIC by using as few as 4-bits per sample. Our method outperforms the previous approach based on adaptive filters when it comes to digital SIC performance, SoI reconstruction, and detection.
