Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi-band FDD transceivers. An example transceiver includes a LO, configured to generate a LO signal to be shared between a receiver and a transmitter of the transceiver. Both the receiver and the transmitter use quadrature signal processing and are configured to multi-band operation. Sharing a single LO to perform frequency conversion of different frequency bands of received and transmitted signals advantageously allows reducing the number of LOs used in a multi-band FDD transceiver.
