  • Patent number: 11424769
    Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) front end module includes an antenna node, a number of RF filtering elements and switching circuitry. Each one of the RF filtering elements is configured to pass RF signals within a filter pass band and attenuate RF signals outside the filter pass band. The switching circuitry is configured to selectively couple one or more of the RF filtering elements to the antenna node such that RF signals in different operating bands received at the antenna node are separately isolated by the RF filtering elements. The RF filtering elements include a shared filtering element, which is switchable such that in a first operating configuration is used to isolate signals within a first operating band and in a second operating configuration is used to isolate signals within a second operating band that is different from the first operating band.

  • Patent number: 8699975
    Abstract: Various embodiments may provide a circuit including a radio frequency (RF) power amplification module having an RF power amplifier. The RF power amplification module may further include a directional coupler coupled with the RF power amplifier and configured to produce a power signal at a coupling port of the directional coupler corresponding to an output power of the RF power amplifier. The RF power amplification module may further include a switch coupled between the coupling terminal and a sensing path to selectively couple the coupling port with a power detector via the sensing path. The RF power amplification module may further include a termination load coupled to an isolation port of the directional coupler. Some embodiments may include a plurality of RF power amplification modules coupled together by the sensing path.
