Abstract
In one implementation, a wireless communication terminal includes a sense antenna module configured to sample an interference signal. The wireless communication terminal also includes a primary antenna module configured to receive a desired signal. The sense antenna module has a first polarization type, and the primary antenna module has a second polarization type, substantially orthogonal to the first polarization type of the sense antenna module. In addition, the wireless communication terminal includes at least one signal combiner configured to receive output from the sense antenna module and output from the primary antenna module. The at least one signal combiner is configured to mitigate interference with the desired signal by shifting the phase of the output from the sense antenna module by substantially 180 degrees and combining the phase-shifted output from the sense antenna module with the output of the primary antenna module to produce an interference mitigated signal.
