    摘要: A terminal includes at least one wireless communication application module (1) and a plurality of further application modules (4, 5, 6, 8). Multiple radio frequency clock signals are generated for the different modules having respective clock frequency characteristics and including at least first and second clock frequencies that are not integral multiples nor sub-multiples of each other nor of a third frequency. The clock generation comprises reference frequency means (14), fractional-N phase-locked loop frequency synthesizer means (15) responsive to the reference frequency means, and different automatic frequency control means for adjusting clock frequencies relative to received signals. The reference frequency means (14) is arranged to supply a common reference frequency signal to a plurality of the fractional-N phase-locked loop frequency synthesizer means (17, 18, 19, 25, 26, 41,42) that supply the first and second clock frequencies respectively for the application modules. Selective activation means (30,52) selectively activates and de-activates the phase lock loop means as required by the corresponding application module or modules.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a multi-mode RF system, which is capable of transmitting and receiving RF signals using any of multiple RF communications bands. The multi-mode RF system may integrate RF band specific bandpass filters and low noise amplifiers (LNAs) into a single front-end module, such that each filter and amplifier pair provide selection and gain for at least one RF communications band. Outputs of the LNAs may be combined to provide one or more common signals to a transceiver module, which processes baseband signals associated with the RF communications bands. By integrating the filters and amplifiers into a single module, the filters and amplifiers may be closely coupled to one another, thereby supporting short signal paths between the filters and amplifiers, and having impedances high enough to provide good filter selectivity.

    摘要: A transceiver may include an antenna tuning control system operably associated with an antenna tuner to control the current power levels of the transmission signal and the receive signal. The antenna tuner control system may receive transmit power control (TPC) information, which was transmitted to the transceiver from a base station on the receive signal. The TPC information may be utilized to change the current power level of the transmission signal to a desired transmission power level. In addition, the antenna tuner control system may generate receive power control (RPC) information. The RPC information may be utilized to change the current power level of the receive signal to a desired receive power level. The antenna tuner control system is operable to adjust the pass band in accordance with the TPC information and the RPC information.

    摘要: An antenna tuner provides a pass band with a transmission resonant frequency and a receive resonant frequency. In this manner, the pass band of the antenna tuner can simultaneously provide matching at both a transmission frequency and a receive frequency, when both transmission signals and receive signals are received on the same antenna. The antenna tuner includes a first capacitive element that is coupled to series resonate with the antenna and a low-pass pi network.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to radio frequency (RF) transmitter circuitry, which includes non-inverting path power amplifier (PA) circuitry, inverting path PA circuitry, and RF transformer circuitry. The non-inverting path PA circuitry provides a non-inverting RF signal and a first power supply (PS) signal to the RF transformer circuitry, such that the first PS signal has a first ripple voltage. The inverting path PA circuitry provides an inverting RF signal and a second PS signal to the RF transformer circuitry, such that the second PS signal has a second ripple voltage. The RF transformer circuitry additively combines the non-inverting RF signal and the inverting RF signal to provide an RF output signal, such that effects of the first ripple voltage and the second ripple voltage are substantially cancelled from the RF output signal.
