AbstractIn simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) systems, multi-tap RF self-interference cancellation (RF-SIC) filters
are employed to prevent receiver saturation and achieve STAR
communication. Specifically, RF-SIC filters aim to reproduce
the frequency response of the interference channel between the
transmit and receive antennas. In this paper, we apply ABCDparameters, Y-parameters, and S-parameters to analyze the
performance of a wideband RF-SIC filter design incorporating
variable delays and coefficients. Numerical MATLAB calculations
demonstrate strong agreement (< 2% error) with Advanced
Design System (ADS) circuit simulations for a three-tap filter
from 2 GHz - 8 GHz.

Fig. 3. Calculated S21 of the RF-SIC filter using cascaded network analysis
(comparisons to ADS circuit simulation are also provided).
Fig. 2. Using the ABCD and Y-parameters, the 3-tap filter is iteratively simplified (first iteration shown here) until only a two-port network remains. The
filter S21 performance is then evaluated and compared to ADS simulations.
