Open systems architecture tactical radio interference improvement

A co-sited transceiver system comprising:

• N transceivers, wherein N>1, at least one of the N transceivers including,
• a multi-band antenna;
• a transceiver switch having a first end coupled to the multi-band antenna,
• a transmission port, and a receiving port;
• transmission circuitry coupled to the transmission port;
• receive circuitry operative to receive an entire frequency band, coupled to the receiving port, the receive circuitry including,
• a bandpass filter coupled to the receiving port of the transceiver switch,
• a low noise amplifier having an input coupled to the bandpass filter,
• a band separation circuit coupled to an output of the low noise amplifier, operative to output a full spectrum signal corresponding to the entire frequency band and a first sub-band signal corresponding to a first portion the entire frequency band,
• a full band circuit, coupled to the band separation circuit, operative to receive the full spectrum signal, and
• a first sub-band circuit, coupled to the band separation circuit, operative to receive the first sub-band signal;
• a multiplexer coupled to the transmission circuitry and the receive circuitry, operative to output a signal of interest in accordance with an open standard protocol;
• a switch coupled to the multiplexer, operative to switch between transmission circuitry and receive circuitry;
• and
• a multi-function processor coupled to the switch, the full band circuit, and the first sub-band circuit, operative to alter signal strength of the full spectrum signal and the first sub-band signal.

A receiving method for a transceiver comprising:

• receiving a full band signal corresponding to an entire frequency band;
• separating the full band signal to provide a full spectrum signal corresponding to the entire frequency band and a first sub-band signal corresponding to a first portion the entire frequency band;
• and
• simultaneously transmitting the full spectrum signal and the first sub-band signal to a multi-function processor;
• wherein the transceiver is operative to output a signal of interest in accordance with an open standard protocol.
