A diplexer for steering transmit and receive signals between an antenna and a transmitter and receiver of a radio frequency communication system. The diplexer includes a first quadrature hybrid device configured for bidirectional communication with the antenna and configured for rerouting transmission signals from the transmitter. The diplexer also includes at least one pair of filters coupled to quadrature ports of the quadrature hybrid device. The at least one pair of filters provides a receive signal from the antenna via the quadrature hybrid device through a receive path and routes a transmit signal from the transceiver via the quadrature hybrid device through a transmit path. The at least one filter pair is configured to filter out noise from the receive signal and to reflect the transmit signal energy while allowing noise through from the transmit signal. The diplexer also includes a second quadrature hybrid device configured to receive an output from each of the at least one pair of filters. The second quadrature hybrid device provides the filtered receive signal to the receiver or the noise from the transmit signal to a load. Fast frequency hopping is supported by switching between pairs of filters, which allows the transmitter and receiver to operate across multiple frequencies by hopping from one frequency to another.
