A radio-frequency circuit is used in simultaneous transfer of a radio-frequency signal of 4G and a radio-frequency signal of 5G, and includes a first transfer circuit that selectively receives the 4G radio-frequency signal or the 5G radio-frequency signal, and transfers a radio-frequency signal of a first communication band including a first transmission band and a first reception band and a radio-frequency signal of a second communication band including a second transmission band and a second reception band. The first and second transmission bands at least partially overlap. The first transfer circuit includes a first power amplifier that amplifies transmission signals of the first and second communication bands, and a first transmission filter that has a first passband including the first and second transmission bands, and passes the transmission signals of the first and second communication bands output from the first power amplifier.

The antenna module includes a first substrate and a second substrate on each of which a radiating element is arranged, a third substrate, and a switch circuit. An RFIC for supplying a radio frequency signal to the first substrate and the second substrate is arranged on the third substrate.

In a plan view of the module substrate, a distance between the power amplifier and the low noise amplifier is longer than a distance between the power amplifier and the low noise amplifier.

Methods and devices are disclosed for amplifying radio signals between a terminal and an antenna or an antenna connection of a circuit having an amplification unit and a detector unit, which has signal branches designed for different frequency ranges, and a power detector. A transmission signal received by the terminal is divided into at least a first signal part and a second signal part. The first signal part is applied to the signal branches of the detector unit. A frequency range of the first signal part is determined by sequential application of the signal branches of the detector unit to the power detector for evaluating a power of the first signal part. For the second signal part, the signal routing in the amplification unit is adjusted based on the frequency range determined by the detector unit. At least the second signal part is amplified by the amplification unit.

Architectures and techniques relate to selectively implementing certain components to suppress emissions. For example, an emissions-suppression circuit can include a notch filter associated with a first frequency range, a switch assembly coupled to the notch filter, and a duplexer coupled to the switch assembly. The switch assembly can be configured to, in a filter state, couple the notch filter to a transmit path and configured to, in a bypass state, decouple the notch filter from the transmit path. The transmit path can be associated with two or more switch connections in the notch-filter state and associated with one switch connection in the bypass state. The duplexer can include a transmit filter that is associated with a second frequency range.

A radio frequency module includes: a first terminal to which a signal of a first frequency band is inputted, the first frequency band being at least a portion of an unlicensed band higher than or equal to 5 GHz; a second terminal to which a signal of a second frequency band is inputted, the second frequency band being at least a portion of a licensed band lower than 5 GHz; a first amplifier configured to amplify a signal of the first frequency band inputted to the first terminal; and a second amplifier configured to amplify a signal of the second frequency band inputted to the second terminal. In the radio frequency module, the first amplifier and the second amplifier are disposed in one package.

A power radio frequency (RF) switch used in wireless communication is disclosed. A boosted switching control signal, which swings between a boosted supply voltage in which a system supply voltage is boosted and a negative supply voltage in which a polarity of the system supply voltage is inverted, is applied to a gate of a high-voltage transistor. Further, a substrate control signal which is synchronized with the boosted switching control signal, and swings between the negative supply voltage and a reference voltage may be applied to a substrate of the high-voltage transistor thereof.

Amplification of received signals in the first and second frequency bands is activated in the absence of a transmission signal in the circuit arrangement in both the first frequency band and the second frequency band. In response to a detection of a transmission signal in the circuit arrangement, the detected transmission signal is checked as to whether the detected transmission signal can be unambiguously assigned to the first frequency band or the second frequency band. If the check reveals that the detected transmission signal cannot be unambiguously assigned to the first frequency band or the second frequency band, a first transmission amplifier path for amplifying the transmission signal in the first frequency band and a first receiving amplifier path for amplifying received signals in the first frequency band are activated.

A high-frequency front end module includes a primary antenna terminal and a secondary antenna terminal, a first multiplexer and a second multiplexer, a switch circuit, and a first amplifier and a second amplifier. The first multiplexer has a first transmission filter and a first reception filter. The second multiplexer has a second transmission filter and a second reception filter. The switch circuit exclusively switches connection between the primary antenna terminal and the first multiplexer and connection between the primary antenna terminal and the second multiplexer, and exclusively switches connection between the secondary antenna terminal and the first multiplexer and connection between the secondary antenna terminal and the second multiplexer.
