Transmit spur detection and mitigation for wireless communications devices

Systems, methods, and devices reduce and mitigate spurs that may occur in transmit waveforms of wireless communications devices. Methods include receiving a plurality of samples of a baseband transmission and generating, using a processing device, an estimated amplitude and an estimated phase of a spur component of the baseband transmission based on the received plurality of samples, the spur component being a spectral spike in a transmit waveform. Methods further include generating, using the processing device, a canceling signal configured to cancel the estimated amplitude and estimated phase of the spur component, and canceling the spur component of the baseband transmission by combining the canceling signal with a transmission of at least a portion of a data packet.
