ACOUSTIC MATRIX DIPLEXERS AND RADIOS USING ACOUSTIC MATRIX DIPLEXERS

Abstract:

There are disclosed acoustic diplexers and radios incorporating the acoustic diplexers. A diplexer includes common port, a low band port, a high band port, n low band sub-filters, and n high band sub-filters, where n is an integer greater than one. Each low band sub-filter has a first sub-filter port connected to the common port and a second sub-filter port connected to the low band port. Each high band sub-filter has a first sub-filter port connected to the common port and a second sub-filter port connected to the high band port. A first acoustic resonator is connected from the common port to ground and a second acoustic resonator is connected from the low band port to ground. The first and second acoustic resonators are configured to create respective transmission zeros adjacent to a lower edge of a passband of the diplexer.
