Abstract:
Multiplex modules for use in carrier aggregation receivers are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes an LNA multiplexer configured to receive a plurality of RF signals at a plurality of input terminals and to combine the RF signals into a combined RF signal that is output from an output terminal. The apparatus also includes an LNA demultiplexer configured to receive the combined RF signal at an input port that is connected to the output terminal and to distribute the combined RF signal to a plurality of output ports.

Abstract:
A wireless device includes: an antenna; and a polar-modulation transmitter coupled to the antenna and configured for two-point modulation, the transmitter including: a data input; a first signal path including a multiplier coupled to the data input and a voltage-controlled oscillator gain adaptation module coupled to the multiplier and configured to provide a gain value to the multiplier; and a second signal path coupled to the data input and including an analog phase-locked loop (PLL) including a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) coupled to the first signal path.
Abstract:
A method includes generating a first signal based on a difference between a first frequency of a first voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and a second frequency of a second VCO. The method further includes determining a gain of the first VCO at least partially based on the first signal.
Abstract:
An apparatus for implementing phase rotation at baseband frequency for transmit diversity may include a primary transmit signal path and a diversity transmit signal path. Both the primary transmit signal path and the diversity transmit signal path may receive a primary transmit signal. A signal selector within the diversity transmit signal path may perform phase rotation with respect to the primary transmit signal while the primary transmit signal is at a baseband frequency, thereby producing a diversity transmit signal.
