For at least some embodiments, a controller 952 of the node generates one or more enable control signals (Enable/Disable) that enable or disable the interference cancellation signals (interference cancellation signal 1 and/or interference cancellation signal 2) based on received signal quality measurements 953 determined during a characterization of the node 900. Further, for at least some embodiments, the received signal quality measurements include a channel impulse response, and the controller further aids the interference cancellation signals based on the channel impulse response. Received signal quality measurement for a given transmit beam weight 924 applied to antenna array 934, and a receive beam weight applied to antenna array 935, are available at the Baseband 911 and RF chain 922.

Although specific embodiments have been described and illustrated, the embodiments are not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangements of parts so described and illustrated. The described embodiments are to only be limited by the claims.
