Unless there is a clearly different meaning in the context, expressions used in singular form include expressions in plural form. In the specification of the present application, it should be understood that terms such as “including”, “having”, and “containing” are intended to indicate possibility of features, numbers, steps, actions, and combinations thereof disclosed in the specification of the present application, and are not intended to excludes possibility that one or more other features, numbers, steps, actions, and combinations thereof may be present or may be added. The same reference numbers in the drawings refer to the same parts.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1, the present application provides a radio-frequency architecture, including a global positioning system (GPS) channel 10, a GPS antenna 110, a GPS filter 120, a first radio-frequency channel 20, a power amplifier 210, a first duplexer 220, a radio-frequency module 230, a switch 240, a first main antenna 250, a diversity antenna 260, a second radio frequency channel 30, a second duplexer 310, a filter 320, and a second main antenna 330.

[0031] In the embodiment of the present application, the GPS channel 10 may include a GPS antenna 110 and a GPS filter 120.

[0032] Wherein, the GPS antenna 110 is used to receive GPS signals, and a center frequency of the GPS signals is 1572.82 MHz.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present application, the GPS filter 120 is a high-pass filter, which also has been known as a low-cutoff filter or a low-bandstop filter. The high-pass filter is a filter that allows frequencies higher than a certain cut-off frequency to pass, and greatly attenuates lower frequencies. Unnecessary low frequencies of signals or low-frequency interference can be removed by the high-pass filter.

[0034] In the embodiment of the present application, the first radio-frequency channel 20 includes a power amplifier 210, a first duplexer 220, a radio-frequency module 230, a switch 240 that are connected in sequence, and includes a first main antenna 250 and a diversity antenna 260 that are all connected to the switch 240.

[0035] The power amplifier 210 refers to an amplifier that can generate a maximum power output to drive a certain load under a given distortion rate.

[0036] The first duplexer 220 includes, but is not limited to, a B2 duplexer or a B25 duplexer, wherein a function of the duplexers is to isolate transmitting signals and receiving signals to ensure that a receiving operation and a transmitting operation can be operated normally at the same time.

[0037] The radio-frequency module 230 is used to transmit analog and digital signals. The radio-frequency module 230 is a non-linear device.

[0038] In the present application embodiment, the switch 240 is a double pole double throw (DPDT) switch, which is configured to switch between the first main antenna 250 and the diversity antenna 260. Specifically, the switch 240 is a non-linear device.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the second radio-frequency channel 30 includes a power amplifier 210, a second duplexer 310, a filter 320, and a second main antenna 330 that are connected in sequence.

[0040] The second duplexer 310 may be a B13 duplexer. An emitting frequency of the second duplexer 310 ranges from 777 MHz to 787 MHz, and twice the emitting frequency of the second duplexer 310 is a GPS frequency band.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present application, the filter 320 is a low-pass filter, which also has been known as a high-cutoff filter or a high-bandstop filter. The low-pass filter is a filter that allows frequencies lower than a certain cut-off frequency to pass, and greatly attenuates higher frequencies. Unnecessary high frequencies of signals or high-frequency interference can be removed by the high-pass filter.

[0042] The second main antenna 330 is used to transmit B13 signals.

[0043] In the present embodiment, by setting an independent radio-frequency channel including the B13 duplexer, LTE_B13 main wave signals, being output by the power amplifier and passing through the B13 duplex, are transmitted out directly from the second main antenna without passing through any non-linear devices (such as the switches 240 and the radio-frequency module 230 shown in FIG. 1). Therefore, influence of the B13 main wave signals and B13 second harmonic wave signals on the GPS channel only exists in coupling between antennas, which greatly reduces interference of the radio-frequency channel with respect to the GPS channel.

[0044] As shown in FIG. 2, the present application provides a mobile terminal 2 including the radio-frequency architecture 1 described above. The mobile terminal 2 may be a product such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, or a navigator.

[0045] In the present application, by setting an independent radio-frequency channel including the B13 duplexer, LTE_B13 main wave signals, being output by the power amplifier and passing through the B13 duplex, are transmitted out directly from the second main antenna without passing through any non-linear devices. Therefore, influence of the B13 main wave signals and B13 second harmonic wave signals on the GPS channel only exists in coupling between antennas, which greatly reduces interference of the radio-frequency channel with respect to the GPS channel.

[0046] The radio-frequency architecture and the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail above. Specific examples are used in the context to illustrate the principles and implementation of the present application. The above description for the embodiment is only used to help understand approaches and core ideas of the present application. Furthermore, for persons skilled in this art, according to ideas of the present application, there will be changes in specific implementation and the scope. In summary, the content of the present specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
