Patent attributes
A wireless single-frequency-channel, full-duplex, full-time transmit and receive communication node includes an antenna that transmits a transmit signal over a wireless transmit channel and that receives a receive signal over a wireless receive channel. A communications processor includes a first port electrically coupled to the antenna and a second port electrically coupled to a transmit path where the transmit path connects the second port to the first port. A third port of communications processor is electrically coupled to a receive path that connects the first port to the third port. The communications processor is configured to pass the transmit signal in the transmit path to the first port and configured to pass the receive signal in the receive path from the first port to the third port such that the transmit signal and the receive signal occupy a same frequency channel and operate simultaneously in a same time slot.
