A smart radio incorporating Parascan® varactors embodied within an intelligent adaptive RF front end. More specifically, this is provided for by a smart radio incorporating Parascan® varactors embodied within an intelligent adaptive RF front end that comprises at least one tunable antenna; at least one antenna null steering facility associated with said at least on tunable antenna; at least one tunable duplexer receiving the output from and providing input to said at least one antenna null steering facility; a first tunable RF filter receiving the output from said at least one tunable duplexer and providing the input to an analog to digital converter, said analog to digital converter providing the input to a digital signal processor, the output of which is input for a digital to analog converter; a second tunable RF filter receiving the analog output of said digital to analog converter and providing an input to said at least one tunable duplexer.
A smart radio embodied within an intelligent adaptive RF front end, comprising:
An intelligent adaptive RF front end of a smart radio, comprising:
A method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, comprising the steps of:
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said at least one tunable antenna are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said least one antenna null steering facility are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said at least one tunable duplexer are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said first tunable RF filter are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said first tunable RF filter are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein embedded in said second tunable RF filter are Parascan® voltage tunable dielectric materials.
The method of separating desired signals from interfering or undesired signals and noise using a smart radio that incorporates an intelligent adaptive RF front end, wherein said tunable notch filter rejects in-band, off-frequency interference and notches with 3 dB bandwidths of 8% and notch depths of around 20 dB extending the SFDR dynamic range of the system to 120 dB.
