Mobile telephone transmitter with internal auxiliary matching circuit
First Claim
1. A transmitter comprising:
- a power amplifying transistor for amplifying a transmitted signal;
an input wide band matching circuit, connected to an input side of said power amplifying transistor, for matching a plurality of frequency bands;
an output main matching circuit, connected to an output side of said power amplifying transistor, for matching said output side to one frequency band of said plurality of frequency bands;
an antenna;
an antenna switch for switching on/off a connection between the output side of said output main matching circuit and said antenna;
a plurality of in-series transistors, connected to the output side of said output main matching circuit, for grounding the output side of said output main matching circuit when the signal is not transmitted; and
an auxiliary matching circuit connected between the in-series connection of said plurality of transistors and ground,wherein said plurality of transistors can be on-off controlled, and when one frequency band other than said one frequency band of said plurality of frequency bands is used, the output side of said power amplifying transistor is matched to the one used frequency band by connecting a predetermined auxiliary matching circuit in all or a part of said auxiliary matching circuit to the output side of said output main matching circuit, under the on-off control in accordance with the used frequency band.

Abstract
Disclosed is a transmitter for switching and transmitting signals of plural frequency bands. For example, the signals of two frequency bands are switched and transmitted. For the transmission in a first frequency band, of transistors 104, 105 are turned off, whereby a power amplifying transistor 102 is matched by an input wide band matching circuit 101 and an output main matching circuit 103, so that the high efficiency linear amplification is accomplished. For the transmission in a second frequency band, the transistor 104 is turned on while the transistor 105 is turned off, whereby the power amplifying transistor 102 is matched by a capacitance 108 as well as the input wide band matching circuit 101 and the output main matching circuit 103, so that the high efficiency linear amplification is accomplished. An external switch for switching the matching circuits is thus unnecessary.
