Current versions of handsets do not seem to be getting smaller as they are already quite small. In fact, some handsets are becoming bigger to accommodate more functions desired by consumers, such as DSC, DVC, MP3, GPS, Internet access, Bluetooth, DTV, etc. Opposite to the earlier thought that fewer...

In full-duplex communication systems such as W-CDMA, a receiver’s tolerance to unwanted transmit signals, including a co-located transmitter, is significantly important since transmission and reception occur simultaneously. Since transmit signals can be as little as 30 MHz away in frequency from the receive signal, surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters...

In the last few years, the architectural design of satellite communications payloads has benefited from the view point of flexibility, from the adoption of Multiport Power Amplifiers (MPA). Multiport power amplifiers offer a means to combine discrete amplifiers in a way that is reconfigurable and will degrade gracefully in...
