Abstract

An inductor circuit includes first inductive circuit, second inductive circuit, and third inductive circuit. First inductive circuit at receiver side has a first end coupled to a first port of an antenna and a second end coupled to an input port of a receiving circuit. Second inductive circuit at transmitter side has a first end and a second end respectively coupled to output ports of a power amplifier. Third inductive circuit at antenna side has a first end coupled to a first port of the antenna and having a second end. Second inductive circuit and the third inductive circuit are disposed on an outer ring to form a ring shape and the third inductive circuit is disposed on an inner ring within the outer ring to form a spiral shape. Third inductive circuit is disposed between the second inductive circuit and the first inductive circuit.

Claims (13)

1. A wireless communication device, comprising:

a first inductive circuit, having a first end coupled to a first port of an antenna and a second end coupled to an input port of a receiving circuit;

a second inductive circuit, having a third end and a fourth end respectively coupled to output ports of a power amplifier;

a third inductive circuit, having a fifth end coupled to the first port of the antenna and having a sixth end; and

a first capacitor, having a seventh end coupled to the first end of the first inductive circuit and an eighth end coupled to the second end of the first inductive circuit;

wherein a first switching circuit is disposed between the first capacitor and the first end of the first inductive circuit or between the first capacitor and the second end of the first inductive circuit.

2. The wireless communication device of claim 1 , wherein the first switching circuit and the first capacitor are connected in series; the first capacitor with the first switching circuit is connected to the first inductive circuit in parallel, and the first switching circuit is turned off to be open during a receiving mode of the wireless communication device and is turned on to be closed during a transmitting mode of the wireless communication device.

3. The wireless communication device of claim 2 , wherein the first switching circuit is turned on during the transmitting mode to make the first capacitor and the first inductive circuit to from an inductor-capacitor resonance for a transmitting path of the wireless communication device.

4. The wireless communication device of claim 1 , wherein the first inductive circuit, the second inductive circuit and the third inductive circuit are formed as a trifilar component.

5. The wireless communication device of claim 1 , wherein the polarity at the third end of the second inductive circuit is identical to the polarity at the fifth end of the third inductive circuit.

6. The wireless communication device of claim 1 , wherein the polarity at the first end of the first inductive circuit is contrast to the polarity at the fifth end of the third inductive circuit.

7. The wireless communication device of claim 1 , wherein a second switch circuit is connected between the second end of the first conductive circuit and a ground level.

8. The wireless communication device of claim 7 , wherein the second switching circuit is turned off to be open during a receiving mode of the wireless communication device and is turned on to be closed during a transmitting mode of the wireless communication device.
