US Patent 10038409 RF switch with integrated tuning

Methods and devices are described for reducing receiver complexity in an RF front-end stage. In one exemplary implementation, a switch is used to connect a plurality of receive paths to a single input amplifier of a transceiver unit used the RF front-end stage. In another exemplary implementation, the switch has a tunable network which can be tuned with respect to various frequencies of operation of the receive path and associated RF signal.
