IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF A RECEIVER IN INTERFERING CONDITIONS

摘要

A device 22 includes a communication system transceiver 40 for exchanging signals in a first frequency band and a receiver 30 for receiving signals in a second frequency band. In order to improve the performance of the receiver. A processing portion 34 of the devices detects the presence of signals interfering with the signals in the second frequency band and also determines a timing pattern for interfering signals based on a timing information which is indicative of the timing for transmissions employed by the transceiver 40. A manipulation of signals reaching the receiver 30 during intervals defined by the determined timing pattern is then done, in order to reduce a performance degradation due to interfering signals originating from a transmitter 21 employing the same timing for transmissions as the transceiver 40. A corresponding method is also disclosed.
