Abstract:
A front-end module, which uses a carrier aggregation method in which communication is performed by simultaneously using Band 8 and Band 3, includes an antenna switch module that switches connections between an antenna and a plurality of signal paths, a first circuit that is connected to a Band 8 signal path, and a second circuit that is connected to a Band 3 signal path and is electromagnetic-field coupled with the first circuit. A signal including a Band 3 frequency component that propagates from the signal path to the signal path via the antenna switch module and a signal including a Band 3 frequency component that propagates from the signal path to the signal path via the first circuit and the second circuit have a phase-shifted relationship with each other.
