Wireless communication system with simplex front-end
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are various examples of architectures, circuits, devices and methods that provide a simplex architecture so that an antenna serves only transmission or reception signals but not both at the same time. The architecture can include transmit and receive ports that can be dynamically coupled to first and second antenna ports to provide a transmit path and a receive path. The disclosed systems can include a controller configured to provide an antenna select signal to the architecture to control operation of the paths between the signal ports and the antenna ports. The architecture can include antenna tuners associated with individual antennas, the antenna tuners being separately controllable by the controller. The architecture can dynamically switch between a simplex configuration and a configuration that uses a single antenna for transmit and receive operations.
