Patent ID: 11025288

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a transceiver arrangement (1) comprising a transceiver device (2) having at least two transceiver ports (8b, 9b, 10b, 11 b), a beamforming network (5), and at least two antenna ports (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d). The transceiver device (2) comprises at least two low-noise amplifier (LNA) arrangements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d), where each LNA arrangement (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) is connected to a respective transceiver port (8b, 9b, 10b, 11 b). The beamforming network (5) is arranged between the antenna ports (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) and the transceiver ports (8b, 9b, 10b, 11 b), whereby a radio frequency (RF) signal received on an antenna port (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) traverses the beamforming network (5) prior to being received on the transceiver ports (8b, 9b, 10b, 11 b). In a receive mode configuration of the transceiver arrangement, the beamforming network (5) is arranged to provide a beam-forming function, whereby the RF signal received on an antenna port is received on the transceiver ports with specific respective phase shifts.
