We consider an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node operating in full-duplex (FD) mode. We analyze simultaneous transmission from the New Radio gNB to the IAB node on the backhaul uplink, IAB node to a user equipment (UE) on the access downlink, and IAB transmitter to the IAB receiver on the self-interference (SI) channel. Our contributions include (1) a low complexity algorithm to jointly design the hybrid analog/digital beamformers for all three nodes to maximize the sum spectral efficiency of the access and backhaul links by canceling SI and maximizing received power; (2) derivation of all-digital beamforming and spectral efficiency upper bound for use in benchmarking; and (3) simulations to compare full vs. half duplex modes, hybrid vs. all-digital beamforming algorithms, proposed hybrid vs. conventional beamforming algorithms, and spectral efficiency upper bound. In simulations, the proposed algorithm shows significant reduction in SI power and increase in sum spectral efficiency.
