Abstract:
A device may include a test signal generator and a receive antenna input. The device may include a switchable impedance matching circuit, coupled to the test signal generator and to a receive chain, to cause an impedance matching between the test signal generator and a component of the receive chain to be increased during a monitoring phase. The impedance matching during the monitoring phase enables one or more measurements based on a test signal generated by the test signal generator. The switchable impedance matching circuit may cause a partial impedance mismatching between the test signal generator and the component of the receive chain during a verification phase associated with verifying a return of the switchable impedance matching circuit to an impedance matching caused during the operational phase. The device may include a control circuit to verify operation of the returning of the switchable impedance matching circuit in the verification phase.
