Abstract
A system for providing full-duplex communications comprises a first transceiver for simultaneously transmitting first signals having a first orthogonal function applied thereto on a first channel and simultaneously receiving second signals having a second orthogonal function applied thereto at a same time. A second transceiver simultaneously receives the first signals having the first orthogonal function applied thereto on the first channel and simultaneously transmits the second signals having the second orthogonal function applied thereto at the same time. Application of the first orthogonal function to the first signals and application of the second orthogonal function to the second signals prevents interference between the first signals and the second signals.

A system for providing full-duplex communications, comprising:
- a first transceiver at a first location including first transmitter circuitry and first receiver circuitry for simultaneously transmitting, from the first transmitter circuitry, first signals having a first orthogonal function applied thereto on a first channel on a first frequency band to a second location and simultaneously receiving, at the first receiver circuitry at the first location, second signals on a second channel on the first frequency band from the second location having a second orthogonal function applied thereto and the first signals on the first channel on the first frequency band from the first transmitter circuitry at a same time on the first frequency band, wherein the first receiver circuitry only processes received signals including the second orthogonal function;
- a second transceiver at the second location including second transmitter circuitry and second receiver circuitry for simultaneously receiving, at the second receiver circuitry the first signals having the first orthogonal function applied thereto on the first channel on the first frequency band from the first location and the second signals on the second channel on the first frequency band and simultaneously transmitting, from the second transmitter circuitry, the second signals having the second orthogonal function applied thereto on the second channel on the first frequency band to the first location at the same time on the first frequency band, wherein the second receiver circuitry only processes received signals including the first orthogonal function;
- and
- wherein application of the first orthogonal function to the first signals and application of the second orthogonal function to the second signals prevents interference between the first signals and the second signals that are being simultaneously transmitted and received on the same frequency band.
A transceiver for transmitting and receiving full duplex communications, comprising:
- signal processing circuitry for receiving input data and modulating the input data onto a first carrier signal on a frequency band for transmission by the transceiver from a first location to a second location and for demodulating a second carrier signal on the frequency band received by the transceiver at the first location into output data;
- orthogonal function processing circuitry for applying a first orthogonal function of a plurality of orthogonal functions to the first carrier signal to be transmitted to the second location from the first location on the frequency band and for removing a second orthogonal function of the plurality of orthogonal functions from the second carrier signal received at the first location from the second location on the frequency band;
- full duplex processing circuitry including transmitter circuitry for simultaneously transmitting the first carrier signal on the frequency band having the first orthogonal function applied thereto on a first channel from the first location to the second location and further including receiver circuitry for simultaneously receiving the second carrier signal on a second channel from the second location and receiving the first carrier signal on the first channel from the first location;
- wherein the signal processing circuitry and the full duplex processing circuitry only processes received signals including the second orthogonal function;
- and
- wherein the first channel having the first orthogonal function applied thereto and the second channel having the second orthogonal function applied thereto do not interfere with each other enabling full duplex transmissions from the transceiver on a same frequency band and a same time slots between the first location and the second location.
A method for providing full-duplex communications between a first transceiver and a second transceiver, comprising:
