APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CANCELLING IN-BAND INTERFERENCES

摘要

The present document discloses an apparatus and method for cancelling in-band interference in a cellular telecommunication system which using multiple-input multiple-output technique. The method includes: receiving a transmitted signal and obtaining an interfering data stream; calculating a value of a credit; deciding whether the credit is above a predefined threshold; regenerating an interference signal by using the interfering data stream if the credit is above the predefined threshold; subtracting the regenerated interference signal from the received transmitted signal to obtain a target signal; and demodulating and decoding the target signal. By using the apparatus and method, the concerned signal can be regenerated even when there is only small number of error bits while all the other bits are correctly decoded. Also, the target stream would be able to know whether the interfering stream can be regenerated or not, before the decoding.
