Abstract
Systems and methods for operating a communication device. The methods comprise: obtaining a signal; allowing the signal to pass through a junction of a communication path to which a reflective frequency selective limiter is coupled; attenuating unwanted components of the signal using the reflective frequency selective limiter; and reflecting remaining components of the signal by the reflective frequency selective limiter so that the remaining components travel downstream along the communication path.
Claims24
A method for operating a communication device, comprising:
- obtaining a signal by the communication device;
- allowing the signal to pass through a first junction of a transmit communication path, wherein a first reflective frequency selective limiter is coupled between the first junction and a short or open circuit termination and configured to provide frequency adaptive spurious signal suppression;
- and
- providing the frequency adaptive spurious signal suppression by attenuating first unwanted components of the signal using the first reflective frequency selective limiter;
- and
- reflecting remaining components of the signal by the first reflective frequency selective limiter so that the remaining components travel downstream along the communication path.
3 more elements
A transmitter, comprising:
- a plurality of electronic devices configured to facilitate communication of a signal over a communication link, wherein the signal passes through a first junction of a transmit communication path during operation of the transmitter;
- and
- at least a first reflective frequency selective limiter coupled between the first junction of the transmit communication path and a short or open circuit termination, the first reflective frequency selective limiter configured to (i) provide frequency adaptive spurious signal suppression by attenuating first unwanted components of the signal and (ii) reflect remaining components of the signal so that the remaining components travel downstream along the transmit communication path.
