Abstract
A system and apparatus is provided to reduce signal routing, area and signal loss in double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) switch implementations in wireless and millimeter-wave front ends. A staggered arrangement of receivers, transmitters and antenna ports connecting with DPDT switches reduce signal cross-over and allow for compact, low-loss multi-antenna configurations.
