Abstract:
A switch circuit, which selectively connects an antenna side circuit to the receiver circuit or transmitter circuit of one of two communication systems, comprises first and second switch parts including two switching elements. The first switch part has a first inductance element located between a port for connection to the antenna side circuit and a port for connection to the second switch part. The second switch part has a second inductance element located between a port for connection to the first switch part and a port for connection to the receiver circuit of the first communication system. The characteristic impedance of the transmission line forming the first inductance element is lower than that of the transmission line forming the second inductance element.
Abstract:
A diplexer employed in communications equipment (such as mobile phones) can divide signals into two channels with a simple configuration without interference. In this diplexer, an inductor is connected between a π-type three-stage one polar low-pass filter and a common terminal as a first matching circuit, and a capacitor is connected between a one polar band-pass filter and a common terminal as a second matching circuit. Two layers of a high-dielectric layer (2a,b,c) and low-dielectric layer (1a,b,c,d) are laminated, said band-pass filter and said second matching circuit are formed in said high-dielectric layer, and said low-pass filter and said first matching circuit are formed in said low-dielectric layer. In this manner, interference can be prevented and the higher harmonics can be attenuated.

A high-frequency module the production yield of which is prevented from degrading as a whole. The high-frequency module comprises a main module having a first high-frequency circuit at least part of which is composed of a conductive pattern built in a multilayer board and a submodule having a second high-frequency circuit and mounted in a cavity defined in the main module. According to the inventions, the main module having the first high-frequency circuit and the submodule having the second high-frequency circuit are constituted separately as discrete components, and the submodule is placed in the cavity in the main module and integrated with the main module. Therefore, even if the main module or the submodule is judged as a defective component, the other ascertained as an acceptable one by inspection after their production can be used. Therefore overall the production yield of the high-frequency module is drastically improved.
Abstract:
To obtain a high-frequency switch that allows quick switching from a transmission mode to a reception mode. A high-frequency switch (11) is formed by connecting a first diode (D1) and a second diode (D2) that serve as switching elements, inductors (SL1) and (SL2), capacitors (C5) and (C6), and resistors (R) and (RA). One end of the resistor (RA) is connected between the first diode (D1) and the second diode (D2), and the other end of the resistor (RA) is connected to the ground. Thus, charges accumulated in the diodes (D1) and (D2) in the ON states are immediately released to ground via the resistor. Accordingly, quick switching from the transmission mode to the reception mode by switching of a control power supply terminal (Vc) from ON to OFF is achieved.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for operating transceivers (1, 1', 1'', 1''') on an antenna (2). The circuit arrangement can be used to operate a large number of transceivers to a great extent without power loss and without a mutual influencing of the signal branches of the devices. To achieve this, switching units (3, 3', 3'', 3''') for attenuation compensation (compensators) are positioned between the common antenna and each transceiver. All transceiver branches of the compensators are connected to the antenna via an interconnection unit (4). The transmission branches (5, 5', 6, 6') are combined by means of passive combiners (9, 11) with the respective interconnection of one isolator (15, 15', 16, 16'), the initial power of the transmission amplifiers of said branches being increased to compensate the attenuation in the combiners. Incoming signals are distributed via splitters (10, 12) among all receiving branches (7, 7', 8, 8') of a respective frequency band of the compensators, their attenuation being compensated by an amplifier of the interconnection unit. Said interconnection unit comprises a duplex separating filter (13, 14) for separating the signal paths of each frequency branch.
