A radio frequency circuit and a signal transmission method are provided. The radio frequency circuit comprises a primary antenna, a secondary antenna and a radio frequency integrated circuit. The primary antenna is electrically coupled to the radio frequency integrated circuit to transmit and receive at least one transmission/reception signal. The secondary antenna is electrically coupled to the radio frequency integrated circuit to receive at least one diversity reception signal. The radio frequency integrated circuit is configured to receive a specific diversity reception signal via the primary antenna and to transmit and receive a specific transmission/reception signal via the secondary antenna.

Radio frequency circuit and signal transmission method

An antenna module includes an antenna, a tunable matching circuit, a power detector and a control unit. The antenna comprises a feeding point. The tunable matching circuit, electrically connected between the antenna and the power detector and configured to provide a loading impedance, comprises a plurality of tunable impedance elements connected to each other and electrically connected to the feeding point as well. The power detector is electrically connected between the tunable matching circuit and a power amplifier and configured to detect a power indicator. The control unit, electrically connected to the tunable matching circuit and the power detector, is configured to read the power indicator and RSSI to generate a control signal for the tunable matching circuit, which consistently changes the loading impedance to achieve impedance matching.
