Method for Suppression of Nearly Constant Envelop Interference

Systems and methods are provided for processing time-domain samples of a digitized signal in rectangular coordinates. The digitized signal can include a low power desired signal and a high power, approximately constant envelope interference signal that spectrally overlaps the desired signal. A rectangular to polar converter can obtain magnitude and phase of each time-domain sample in polar coordinates. An interference estimator can estimate a magnitude of the interference signal based on magnitudes of a predetermined number of time-domain samples in polar coordinates. A subtractor can obtain a difference magnitude for each time-domain sample in polar coordinates based on the magnitude of that sample and the estimated magnitude of the interference signal in polar coordinates. A polar to rectangular converter can obtain time-domain samples in rectangular coordinates of the desired signal with reduced power of the interference signal based on the difference magnitude and phase of time-domain samples in polar coordinates.
