Abstract :
New SAW antenna duplexers used in EGSM/PCN dual-band handy phones have been developed. The differences between the single- and dual-band RF-circuit configurations are taken into considerations. Direct-parallel connection between the receiver SAW filter and the transmitter diode switch makes it possible to reduce the number of circuit elements and to achieve a small module size. The required frequency characteristics were also achieved.
