Abstract

A duplex radio transceiver, coupled to baseband circuitry and to an antenna, includes a receive chain, a transmit chain and a duplexer. The transmit chain includes filter components that attenuate signals originating from the transmit chain in a receive frequency band by a stop-band attenuation that is approximately equal to or greater than the stop-band attenuation of the duplexer in the receive band. Similarly, the receive chain includes filter components filter components that attenuate signals in a transmit frequency band by a stop-band attenuation that is approximately equal to or greater than the stop-band attenuation of the duplexer in the transmit band. A bias control circuit senses a power level associated with radio signals in the transmit chain and adjusts an amplifier in the receive chain responsive to the power level.
