Abstract

The disclosure relates to arrangements for antenna interfaces configurable to efficiently support different communication modes. This is achieved by an antenna connection circuitfor a communication devicewherein the antenna connection circuitis configurable for communication modes. The antenna connection circuit comprises a first quarter-wave transformer qwcoupled between an antenna port A and an transmitter port Tx, and a second quarter-wave transformer qwcoupled between the antenna port A and a receiver port Rx. The antenna connection circuit further comprises a first ground switch scoupled between the receiver port Rx and a first ground connection g, and a second ground switch sis coupled between the transmitter port Tx and a second ground connection g. The antenna connection circuit further comprises a resistor R and a resistor switch scoupled in series between the receiver port Rx and the transmitter port Tx, and an inverting amplifier switch scoupled between the receiver port Rx and an input port Iof an inverting amplifier Amp, and an output port Oof the inverting amplifier Ampis coupled to the transmitter port Tx.
