Abstract
Wireless transceiver includes a plurality of RF filters. A first band switching network includes a first plurality of RF switches to selectively direct transmitter RF energy to a selected RF filter. A second band switching network includes a second plurality of RF switches which selectively controls which of RF filter is connected to an antenna port. A receiver RF switch is connected to at least one of the RF filters and to a receiver input to selectively permit the received RF energy arriving at one RF filter to be communicated to the receiver. Each RF switch is a PIN diode type with at least one series diode provided along a signal path. No more than two PIN diodes are present in the signal path between the common transmitter port and the common antenna port when any of the RF filters is in use.
