Abstract
A transceiver system includes a first receive path with a first antenna configured to receive first signals, a first configuration switch, a first low noise amplifier configured to amplify the first signals, a second configuration switch, and a receiver. The first receive path is selectively configured to supply the amplified first signals to the receiver via the first antenna, the first configuration switch, the first low noise amplifier, and the second configuration switch. A second receive path includes a second antenna configured to receive second signals, a second low noise amplifier configured to amplify the second signals, the second configuration switch, and the receiver. The second receive path (i) includes fewer configuration switches than the first receive path and (ii) is selectively configured to supply the amplified second signals to the receiver via the second antenna, the second low noise amplifier, and the second configuration switch.
