Abstract
A system, radio architecture, and/or wireless device may include a transceiver and/or a first front-end module (FEM) directly coupled to the transceiver and providing coverage of multiple bands of a wireless network. The device may include a first switch directly coupled to the first front-end module. The device may include a first filter directly coupled to the first switch. The device may include a second filter directly coupled to the first switch. The device may include a second switch directly coupled to the first filter and the second filter. The device may include a first antenna coupled to the second switch.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a first front-end module (FEM) directly coupled to the transceiver and providing coverage of multiple bands of a wireless network;
- a first switch directly coupled to the first front-end module;
- a first filter directly coupled to the first switch;
- a second filter directly coupled to the first switch;
- a second switch directly coupled to the first filter and the second filter;
- and
- a first antenna coupled to the second switch.
A wireless device comprising:
- a first transceiver;
- an antenna;
- a diplexer coupled between the first transceiver and the antenna;
- a first front-end module (FEM) coupled between the first transceiver and the diplexer and providing coverage of a first band and a second band of a wireless network;
- and
- a second FEM coupled to the diplexer and providing coverage of a third band of the wireless network.
A wireless device comprising:
- a host device;
- a first transceiver coupled to the host device;
- a second transceiver coupled to the host device;
- a first antenna;
- a second antenna;
- a first front-end module (FEM) coupled between the first transceiver and the first antenna and providing at least partial coverage of a first band and a second band of a wireless network;
- and
- a second FEM coupled between the second transceiver and the second antenna and providing at least partial coverage of the first band of the wireless network.
