Method and apparatus for reducing interference in a time division duplex communication system

摘要

A first transmitter (103) reduces an interference in a time division duplex (TDD) communication system (100). The first transmitter (103) alternates from a transmit state in which a first information signal (130) is transmitted to a standby state in which a residual signal (132) is transmitted. The first transmitter (103) includes a transmitter section (142) and a controller (141). The transmitter section (142 transmits the first information signal (130) and the residual signal (132). The transmitter section (142) includes a power amplifier (144) to amplify the first information signal (130) and the residual signal (132) to a power level; and an exciter (143) to control a carrier frequency of the first information signal (130) and the residual signal (132). The controller (141) is coupled to the power amplifier (144) and the exciter (143), for adjusting the power level and setting the carrier frequency.
