  • Integrated circuit and method for reception of radio frequency signals
    Patent number: 8045940
    Abstract: An integrated circuit, IC, for reception of radio frequency; RF, signals in an antenna network system, the IC comprising: a plurality of amplifying paths to cover a plurality of radio frequency bandwidths or standards, each amplifying path comprising at least one low noise amplifier, at least one variable attenuator unit, and/or at least one gain flattening unit, each of the low noise amplifier, the attenuator unit, and the gain flattening unit being adapted to operate at a respective radio frequency bandwidth or standard; at least one control interface connected with at least one of the low noise amplifier, the attenuator unit, and the gain flattening unit on each amplifying path and adapted for communication with a digital processing unit to control operation of the at least one of the low noise amplifier, the attenuator unit, and the gain flattening unit.
