The existing studies focus mainly on the zero forcing of self-interference without the suppression for the RF transmitter noise in the full-duplex base station with multiple transmit and receive antennas.Considering the suppression for the RF transmitter noise
this paper proposes a joint transmit and receive beamforming algorithm.First
we derive the analytical expression of the receiver beamforming vector based on the maximum signal-to-interference-noise ratio(SINR) criterion.The algorithm for designing the transmit beamforming vector is then given by minimizing self-interference.The simulation results show that when the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) are 30dB and 60dB respectively
the values of the self-interference cancellation are 65.5dB and 89.8dB for the base station with three transmit and three receive antennas.Meanwhile
the corresponding improvement are 25.5dB and 19.8dB respectively compared to the SVD zero forcing scheme.
