Such an approach may require measuring the GD(i,j,k) for the (i,j) ordered pairs for both k=kT and k=kR, which in turn involves one or more of transmitting at frequency kR which differs from the usual transmit frequency kT, and likewise receiving at frequency kT which differs from the usual receive frequency kR. In this instance, an additional receiver module may be provided to receive at the transmit frequency kT, to enable determining txgd(i,kT). Likewise, an additional transmitter module may be provided to transmit at the receive frequency kR, to enable determining rxgd(j,kR).
Further, transmissions by the device at the receive frequency may interfere with reception by other devices at that same frequency. For example, assume that UE1 transmits at its receive frequency kR to measure rxgd(j,kR). If UE2 receives this transmission at frequency kR, it would be difficult for UE2 to receive its downlink transmissions from the base station at frequency kR, especially if UE2 is very close to UE1, in which case downlink reception may be completely jammed. An analogous situation can also happen at the gNBs, where an FDD gNB transmitting in its receive band creates interference to other gNBs attempting to receive signals from UEs they serve; the only difference being that the transmit and receive bands are now interchanged with respect to that of the UE.
