A switch or circulator is used for distinguishing between the paths of transmitter and receiver in TDD systems. If the isolation between Tx and Rx paths is low in TDD systems, the output signal of the ransmitter acts as an interferer to the receiver even if the transceiver operates on the receiver mode. In this paper we propose a method to get high isolation characteristics between transmitting and receiving paths in TDD systems. We implement the module with a proposed improving method to verify the effect of the isolation improvement and the experimental results are presented. The isolation improvement of above 44.8 dB over the frequency bandwidth of 30 MHz is obtained from the implemented isolation improvement module.

The single device that is combined more than one communication systems in shared band is called collocated system. In this paper, the collocated system is made by combination of Wi-Fi and WiMAX system. Performance of the collocated system is analysed by using two communication model, Collaborative and Non-Collaborative. To minimize the mutual interference between Wi-Fi and WiMAX system in collocated system, the circulator-based collocated system is proposed and analysed it's performance characteristics.

In this paper, a system of self-interference signal cancelation for in-band full duplex has been implemented and tested in RF/analog region. The system performance has been evaluated with NI5791 platform and NI Flex RIO. Due to the low power level of the NI5791, the RF signal is amplified by SKYWORKS SE2565T power amplifier. A circulator is used to feed the antenna both the transmitter and receiver. The RF FIR filter is designed by twelve delay taps in two different groups, and the interval between each delay tap is designed to have 100 ps. The amplified signal is distributed to antenna and the FIR filter by use of a 10 dB directional coupler. The tap coefficients of the RF FIR filter are tuned to estimate the self-interference signal coming from antenna reflection and the leakage of the circulator, and the self-interference signal is subtracted. The system is test with 802.11a/g 20 MHz OFMD at 2.56 GHz, and the output power of the amplifier of 0 dBm. The self-interference signal is canceled out by 53 dB.
