Abstract:
An n input, radio frequency (RF) signal matrix is formed of a plurality of two-to-one RF signal routing units each including first, second, and third switching units selectively connecting either a first input to an output via a bypass conductive path while electrically isolating first and second signal combining conductive paths from the output or first and second inputs to the output via first and second signal combining conductive paths while electrically isolating the bypass conductive path from the output. The RF signal routing units are connected in at least two levels with outputs from a first level connected to inputs for a second level to form the n inputs for the RF signal matrix. Any number of the n inputs may be employed without unused inputs loading the output.
