Abstract
Implementations of the present disclosure relate to a short detection and protection circuit for an access point. The circuit comprises a plurality of front end modules (FEMs), a power source configured to supply power to the plurality of FEMs, a plurality of first switches electrically connected between the plurality of FEMs and the power source, and a plurality of short detection units each electrically connected to a respective FEM of the plurality of FEMs and a respective first switch of the plurality of first switches. With these implementations, by providing the short detection units of the present disclosure, the common power source is electrically isolated in time from the failed or shorted FEM, and the common power source can continue to supply power to other FEMs of good performance. Thus, the access point (AP) can keep working, thereby improving the reliability of the AP.
