Abstract
An RF frontend integrated circuit (IC) device comprises one or more RF transceivers to transmit and receive RF signals within a first frequency band and a second frequency band that is higher than the first frequency band. The RF frontend IC device further comprises a bidirectional LO signal generation circuit coupled to the one or more transceivers to generate a bidirectional LO signal. The bidirectional LO signal is injected between the first frequency band and the second frequency band. The bidirectional LO signal generation circuit is to perform a high-side LO injection for the RF signals within the first frequency band by injecting the bidirectional LO signal having an LO frequency higher than the first frequency band and to perform a low-side LO injection for the RF signals within the second frequency band by injecting the bidirectional LO signal having the LO frequency lower than the second frequency band.
