Front-end modules with fixed impedance matching circuits

Abstract:

Diversity receiver front end systems with fixed impedance matching circuits to improve signal processing. The fixed impedance matching circuits can be configured to reduce out-of-band metrics such as noise figure and/or gain for a plurality of out-of-band frequency bands while reducing or not increasing above a certain threshold an in-band metric for the associated in-band frequency band. Each of a plurality of paths through the front-end systems can include fixed impedance matching circuits that accomplish this tuning to improve performance for the front-end systems.
