Abstract
An inductor that adjust characteristics of a transmit filter circuit is disposed so that the inductor and at least one of common paths, a matching circuit, a receive filter circuit, and receive paths connected to an output terminal of the transmit filter circuit define a propagation path due to magnetic-field coupling and/or electric-field coupling. This configuration does not require the addition of a circuit device to define the propagation path. It is thus possible to improve attenuation characteristics for an RF signal outside the frequency band of a transmitting signal and to improve isolation characteristics between a transmit filter circuit and a receive filter circuit without increasing the size of a radio-frequency module.
