Digital receiver (RX) arrays featuring ADCs at each element enable massive multi-in-multi-out (MIMO) applications, but since spatial interference rejection is absent in the RF/analog domain, RF/analog/ADC dynamic range is challenged in an environment where strong and weak spatially distinct in-band signals co-exist. Recent MIMO RX array works [1,2] attempt to mitigate this problem with (single) spatial notch suppression in the RF/analog domain, while still maintaining multiple outputs to support MIMO. However, multiple spatial interference signals at different power levels can be present, and reflections and scattering can make the power distribution in the spatial domain more hostile. A single spatial notch is insufficient in such realistic scenarios. Secondly, the notch suppression bandwidth (BW) is typically limited, as is the case with conventional cancellation architectures. Thirdly, reconfigurable wideband MIMO RX arrays that rely on impedance translation concepts in RF switched-capacitor circuits seldom operate effectively beyond 2GHz in CMOS [1].
