Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods related to reducing intermodulation products in an RF output signal by matching an impedance of the power amplifier to an impedance of the antenna and concurrently blocking signals having a second fundamental frequency received by the antenna when the antenna is transmitting to inhibit intermodulation products of the first and second fundamental frequencies from re-radiating from the antenna. The matching and blocking are performed concurrently by a single circuit with combined matching and blocking functionality.
