Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to a split-band duplexer architecture that takes advantage of a relationship between a frequency division duplex (FDD) transmit band, an FDD receive band, and a time division duplex (TDD) band, which has frequencies located between FDD transmit band frequencies and FDD receive band frequencies. As such, by splitting the FDD receive and transmit bands into two sub-bands, two separate sub-band duplexers may be used to fully support the FDD receive and transmit bands. Further, a passband of one of the sub-band duplexers may be widened to support the TDD band while transmitting, and a passband of the other of the sub-band duplexers may be widened to support the TDD band while receiving. By using sub-band duplexers, isolation margins and insertion loss margins may be increased, which may allow use of standard filter components, such as surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters.
