US Patent 7657228 Device, system and method of noise identification and cancellation

Some embodiments of the invention provide devices, systems and methods of noise identification and cancellation. For example, an apparatus in accordance with an embodiment of the invention includes: a characterizer to estimate a non-linear mutual relation between: a characteristic of an incoming interference signal, and an estimated portion of noise level in an incoming signal-of-interest caused by the incoming interference signal; and a noise canceller to reduce an effect of the interference signal on the signal-of-interest by applying a noise reduction algorithm based on said non-linear mutual relation.
