Abstract
A reactance cancelling radio frequency (RF) circuit array is disclosed. The reactance cancelling RF circuit array includes multiple RF circuits each coupled to one or two adjacent RF circuits by one or two pairs of coupling mediums each having a respective length less than one-quarter wavelength. In one aspect, an RF input signal is first split across the RF circuits and then combined to form an RF output signal. As a result, each RF circuit requires a lower power handling capability to process a portion of the RF input signal. In another aspect, each pair of the coupling mediums can cause reactance cancellation in each reactance-cancelling pair of the RF circuits. By coupling the RF circuits via the coupling mediums and enabling splitting-combining among the RF circuits, it is possible to miniaturize the reactance cancelling RF circuit array for improved performance across a wide frequency spectrum.
