Systems and methods that employ a balanced duplexer

The present invention relates to systems and methods that employ a novel balanced duplexer that can be utilized to facilitate concurrent signal transmission and reception. The systems and methods can be employed within mobile devices such as cell phones and utilize two-filters (e.g., acoustic) with substantially similar input / output impedances interfaced with two couplers (e.g., 3 dB hybrid), which provide isolation and maintain the duplexer's input / output impedance. The couplers interface the filters to front / back ends such as signal processors, transmitters and receivers. The novel aspects of the present invention mitigate the need to employ external directional couplers between the duplexer and front / back ends. In addition, the two-filter topology enables employment of lower powered rated filters. The systems and methods further provide for separation and isolation of transmitters and receivers, which reduces noise coupling and enables the transmitter and receiver to be placed within close proximity.

On Chip Antenna And Method Of Manufacturing The Same

An antenna with air-filled trench is integrated with a radio frequency (RF) circuit. The trench locates directly under the metal lines that made up the antenna and is formed by etching from the back side of the semiconductor substrate until all the substrate material in the trench is removed. The air-filled trench greatly reduces the losses due to the semiconductor substrate; therefore the performance of the antenna improves greatly. When the antenna is a large planar spiral inductor, the air-filled trench means the semiconductor substrate inside the spiral inductor is untouched; hence integrated circuit can be built inside the antenna and on that substrate. Therefore the RF integrated circuit has a smaller size. Air-filled trench can also be used to reduce the semiconductor substrate noise coupling between digital circuit block and analog / RF circuit block. This air-filled trench and the air-filled trench under the antenna are formed at the same time.
