Abstract
A high frequency module for transmitting and receiving, for example, communication signals of GSM/DCS/PCS/WCDMA systems through a single antenna, is provided at a relatively small size and low cost. The high frequency module includes a diplexer arranged to separate communication signals from the antenna into GSM communication signals in lower frequency bands and POS/DOS/WODMA communication signals in higher frequency bands, a diode switch circuit that is connected to a input and output terminal of the GSM communication signal of the diplexer and is arranged to switch transmission and reception of the GSM communication signal, and a multipoint GaAsIC switch that is connected to the GSM/DCS/PCS/WCDMA communication signals of the diplexer and is arranged to switch transmission and reception of these signals. The high frequency module switches the four types of communication signals by changing the patterns of controls signals VcG, VC, and Vcthat are applied to the diode switch circuit and the GaAsIC switch.
