Abstract

This study designs antenna-plexers, including a surface acoustic wave (SAW) extractor and an upper- and mid-high band (UHB + MHB) diplexer, for LTE 4G and 5G bands using carrier aggregation. The SAW extractor combines a bandpass filter (BPF) and a band-stop filter (BSF) in a single unit that consists of eight modified Butterworth-van Dyke (mBVD) resonators that resonate in parallel with an inductor and SAW resonators. This BSF behaves as a high-pass filter at frequencies lower than the designed WIFI band and as a capacitor at higher frequencies. The SAW extractor meets product specifications in the frequency range 0.7 to 2.7 GHz. The UHB + MHB diplexer, which is composed of a microwave filter, a SAW filter, and a simple matching inductor, uses frequency response methods to create an RF component for 2.4 GHz + WIFI 6E applications. The design uses a SAW's interdigital transducer (IDT) structure, and the experimental results are in agreement with the simulation results, so the design is feasible.
