Abstract
A wideband radio-frequency transceiver front-end is provided. The transceiver front-end includes an antenna port and a transmission path coupled to the antenna port comprising a power amplifier and a first matching network. The transceiver front-end further includes a reception path coupled to the antenna port comprising a low noise amplifier and a second matching network. Furthermore, the transceiver front-end includes an impedance inverter coupled in-between the antenna port and the second matching network. Moreover, the transceiver front-end includes a controller comprising switching arrangement for a gate and a drain of the power amplifier. In this context, the controller is configured to initiate a first reception mode by connecting the gate of the power amplifier to ground and by connecting the drain of the power amplifier to a supply voltage.
