METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR SUPPRESSING INTERFERENCE

摘要

Embodiments of the invention provide an adaptive notch filter that employs a power detector as a feedback control mechanism to steer the notch filter. One such embodiment of the invention provides adaptive control of the notch filter capacitor to tune the notch filter frequency based upon a diode power detector. One embodiment of the invention provides a system including multiple cascaded adaptive notch filters each having a feedback control method from a power detector to separately control each filter. For one embodiment of the invention a method is disclosed for tuning an adaptive notch filter using a dithering process to determine a minimum power output at the power detector. One embodiment includes an adaptive notch filter implementing a device with a tunable resonance frequency.
