Abstract
This disclosure relates to a transceiver element comprising receiving circuitry, down-converting circuitry, extracting circuitry and output circuitry. The receiving circuitry is configured to receive a radio frequency signal via an antenna element associated with the receiving circuitry. The radio frequency signal comprises a first received signal part and a second received signal part. The down-converting circuitry is configured to down-convert the radio frequency signal to provide a down-converted signal. The down-converted signal comprises a first down-converted signal part corresponding to the first received signal part and a second down-converted signal part corresponding to the second received signal part. The extracting circuitry is configured to extract at least the second down-converted signal part from the down-converted signal. The output circuitry is configured to provide an output signal comprising a first output signal part and a second output signal part. The first output signal part comprises at least a first intermediate signal part which comprises at least the first down-converted signal part. The second output signal part comprises at least the second down-conver…
