Switched-filter duplexing architecture for front-end systems

Abstract:

Switched-filter duplexing architecture for front-end systems. In some embodiments, a wireless architecture can include a first system having a first signal routing circuit for a first transceiver, and a first antenna node, and be configured to be capable of simultaneous transmit and receive operations for a first band and a receive operation for a second band through the first antenna node. The wireless architecture can further include a second system having a second signal routing circuit for a second transceiver and a second antenna node, and be configured to be capable of a transmit operation for the second band through the second antenna node. The wireless architecture can further include a switchable path implemented to selectively allow the transmit operation for the second band to be performed through the second antenna node of the second system or the first antenna node of the first system.
