Phase noise removal in a network of radio frequency (RF) repeaters

Patent number: 11646785

Abstract: A wireless communication system includes a first communication device and a second communication device. The first communication device obtains a plurality of radio frequency (RF) signals corresponding to different communication protocols from a plurality of communication systems. A frequency of each of the plurality of RF signals is upconverted to a different frequency, and a phase noise is introduced in the plurality of RF signals. The plurality of RF signals corresponding to different communication protocols are multiplexed into a mmWave RF signal of a specified frequency and a defined pilot tone along with the mmWave RF signal is transmitted. The second communication device captures the mmWave RF signal having the defined pilot tone over-the-air. At least one RF signal is down converted to a source frequency and the phase noise is estimated in the one extracted RF signal based on the defined pilot tone which is reduced concurrently.
