Abstract
Systems and methods directed towards reducing noise introduced into a signal when processing the signal are discussed herein. In embodiments a signal may initially be split by a multiplexer into two or more frequency bands. Each of the frequency bands can then be forwarded through an assigned channel. One or more channels may include an amplifier to independently boost the signal band assigned to that channel prior to a noise source within the assigned channel. This results in boosting the signal band relative to noise introduced by the noise source. In some embodiments, a filter may also be implemented in one or more of the channels to remove noise from the channel that is outside the bandwidth of the signal band assigned to that channel. Additional embodiments may be described and/or claimed herein.
