Tunable filter using integrated multi-throw switch matrix

A method, comprising:

• obtaining, by a system comprising at least one controller, first data representative of a first radio frequency (RF) signal to filter;
• selecting, by the system, first respective switch states of respective switches, wherein the first respective switch states couple a first filter to a first path from an input port at which the first RF signal is received to an output port;
• controlling, by the system, the respective switches to set the respective switches to the first respective switch states;
• obtaining, by the system, second data representative of a second RF signal to filter;
• selecting, by the system, second respective switch states of the respective switches, wherein the second respective switch states couple a second filter to a second path from the input port at which the second RF signal is received to the output port;
• and
• controlling, by the system, the respective switches to set the respective switches to the second respective switch states.

A tunable filter, comprising:

• a multi-throw switch matrix;
• a radio frequency (RF) input port coupled to the multi-throw switch matrix;
• an RF output port coupled to the multi-throw switch matrix;
• and
• a group of filters coupled to selectable RF signal paths from the RF input port to the RF output port,
• wherein the multi-throw switch matrix is controllable to select one or more of the selectable RF signal paths, for an RF signal obtained at the RF input port to the RF output port, to selectively filter the RF signal between the RF input port and the RF output port.
