Abstract

A multi-path signal interference cancellation system cancels multiple time delayed signal components of a multi-path interference signal received by a receive antenna and carried on a receiver transmission line of a radio receiver system. The interference cancellation system includes a plurality of adaptive interference canceller circuits, each of which has a synchronous detector, a signal controller and an integrator as essential parts of closed control loops defined by the canceller circuits. The integrator has gain and bandwidth characteristics associated therewith which are adjustable to adjust the gain and bandwidth of each closed control loop. An intensity profile of the multi-path interference signal is generated and stored in a memory. An intensity profile signal from the memory is provided to the integrator of each adaptive interference canceller circuit to adjust the gain and bandwidth of the integrator and the loop in which it is situated to maximize the error detection residual signal-to-noise ratio of each adaptive interference canceller circuit. Each adaptive interference canceller circuit generates a cancellation signal from which a synthesized cancellation signal is generated and effectively injected onto the receiver transmission line to cancel the multiple time delayed signal components of the multi-path interference signal carried thereon so that the radio receiver of the radio receiver system only receives a desired signal.
