Self-controlled radio frequency (rf) filtering unit

Abstract

A self-controlled radio frequency (RF) filtering unit that may include (i) a frequency bank that comprises first till fourth band pass filters (BPFs) having first till fourth frequency bands respectively; wherein at least one harmonic of at least one fundamental frequency within the first frequency band pass an interference risk for at least one other frequency band; (ii) a measurement circuit configured to measure the input power received in two or more frequency bands and to provide a power measurement result; (ii) an input RF switch comprising a first RF switch input port, a first RF switch output port, and a second RF switch output port; wherein input RF switch is configured to select a selected RF switch output port, based at least in part on the power measurement result, out of the first and second RF switch output ports; wherein the first RF switch output port is RF coupled to an input of the second BPF; wherein the second RF switch output port is RF coupled to inputs of the first BPF, the third BPF and the fourth BPF; and (ii) an output RF switch comprising a second RF switch input port, a third RF switch input port, and a third RF switch output port; wherein output RF switch is configured to select, based at least in part on the power measurement result, a selected RF switch input port out of the second and third RF switch input ports; wherein the second RF switch input port is RF coupled to outputs of the first BPF and the second BPF; and wherein the third RF switch input port is RF coupled to outputs of the third BPF and the fourth BPF.
