         [0031]    Now, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent to the skilled in the art that the present invention may be materialized in other particular types within a scope not exceeding the spirit and essential features of the present invention. 
         [0032]      FIG. 1  is a schematic view illustrating a general RF module including a diplexer. Referring to  FIG. 1 , a conventional RF module may include matching circuits ( 12 ,  15 ,  17 ), a BALUN (Balance-to-Unbalance,  12 ) and a diplexer ( 16 ). The RF module including the diplexer ( 16 ) may separate signals of mutually different bands received through an antenna ( 18 ) and transmit the same to a first load ( 11 ) and to the second load ( 14 ). 
         [0033]    The matching circuits ( 12 ,  15 ,  17 ) may minimize the reflection loss of each part by being positioned at between each part. To be more specific, a matching circuit ( 16 ) disposed between the antenna ( 18 ) and the diplexer ( 16 ) can reduce the reflection loss between the antenna ( 18 ) and the diplexer ( 16 ), a matching circuit disposed between the BALUN ( 13 ) and the first load ( 11 ) can reduce the reflection loss between the BALUN ( 13 ) and the first load ( 11 ), and a matching circuit ( 15 ) disposed between the diplexer ( 16 ) and the second load ( 14 ) can reduce the reflection loss between the diplexer ( 16 ) and the second load ( 14 ). 
         [0034]    The diplexer ( 16 ) may prevent signals outputted from the first and second loads ( 11 ,  14 ) from being mutually influenced, or transmit the signals to the antenna ( 18 ), or may be a branching filter element transmitting the signals to the first and second loads ( 11 ,  14 ) by dividing signals received from the antenna ( 18 ) in response to bands. The RF module having the configuration thus explained may include a loss generated by the diplexer ( 16 ). To be more specific, the loss generated by the diplexer ( 16 ) may include a power branch loss, an impedance matching loss and a path loss. 
         [0035]      FIG. 2  is a schematic conceptual view illustrating an RF module according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, where the RF module may include a first FEM (Front End Module,  210 ), and a second FEM ( 220 ). 
         [0036]    The RF module according to the present invention may transmit signals of two frequency bands received through an antenna ( 230 ) to first and second loads ( 240 ,  250 ) respectively, or may transmit signals of two frequency bands outputted through the first and second loads ( 240 ,  250 ) to the antenna ( 230 ). To be more specific, the first FEM ( 210 ) may transmit a signal of first band received from the antenna ( 230 ) to the first load ( 240 ), and may transmit a signal of first band transmitted from the first load ( 240 ) to the antenna ( 230 ). Furthermore, the second FEM ( 220 ) may transmit a signal of second band received from the antenna ( 230 ) to the second load ( 250 ), and may transmit a signal of second band transmitted from the second load ( 250 ) to the antenna ( 230 ). In particular, the first and second FEMs ( 210 ,  220 ) included in the RF module according to the present invention may include a plurality of elements therein, and each of the first and second FEMs ( 210 ,  220 ) may interrupt or pass a signal of particular frequency by classifying the frequency band of signals in response to time constant determined by the plurality of elements disposed thereinside. 
         [0037]    The first FEM ( 210 ) may include a Line A ( 211 ) and a Line B ( 212 ), and the second FEM ( 220 ) may include a Line C. Here, the Line A ( 211 ) and the Line B ( 212 ) may be transmission paths transmitted with the first and second signals included in a signal of frequency band transmitted from the antenna ( 230 ) to the first load ( 240 ) through the first FEM ( 210 ), or transmitted to the antenna ( 230 ) from the first load ( 240 ). Furthermore, the first and second signals may be signals each having a phase difference, albeit signals being of same frequency band. 
         [0038]    The RF module provided through an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may provide signals of at least two or more frequency bands to a sender/receiver terminal that can simultaneously receive and send signals. Although the exemplary embodiment of the present invention has explained an example where signals of two frequency bands are received and sent, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, although the RF module according to the present invention may be provided to a sender/receiver terminal receiving a signal of first band of 2.4 GHz and a signal of second band of 5 GHz, the present invention is not limited thereto. 
         [0039]    The RF module according to the present invention, unlike the conventional RF module in  FIG. 1 , can transmit signals of two frequency bands by dividing the signals to the first load ( 240 ) and the second load ( 250 ), while not being disposed with a diplexer. As a result, the RF module according to the present invention can reduce a power branch loss, an impedance matching loss and a path loss generated by a diplexer. 
         [0040]      FIG. 3  is a schematic view illustrating an RF module according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, where the RF module may include a first FEM ( 310 ) and a second FEM ( 320 ). 
         [0041]    The first FEM ( 310 ) may include first to fifth circuits ( 311 ,  312 ,  313 ,  314 ,  315 ) and the second FEM ( 320 ) may include sixth circuit ( 321 ) and a seventh circuit ( 322 ). Here, the first to seventh circuits ( 311 ,  312 ,  313 ,  314 ,  315 ,  321 ,  322 ) may be a circuit including at least one of a resistor, a capacitor and an inductor. 
         [0042]    As explained in the foregoing, the first and second FEMs ( 310 ,  320 ) included in the RF module according to the present invention may pass or interrupt a signal of particular frequency band through division or classification of frequency band of signal in response to a time constant determined by a plurality of elements disposed thereinside. 
         [0043]    To be more specific, the first FEM ( 310 ) may pass a signal of first band in response to a first time constant, which is a time constant determined by first to fifth circuits disposed inside the first FEM ( 310 ), and may interrupt a signal of second band. Furthermore, the second FEM ( 320 ) may interrupt a signal of first band in response to a second time constant, which is a time constant determined by sixth and seventh circuits ( 321 ,  322 ) disposed inside the second FEM ( 320 ), and may pass a signal of second band. 
         [0044]    Still furthermore, the first time constant determined by the first to fifth circuits ( 311 ˜ 315 ) disposed inside the first FEM ( 310 ) may be so determined as to be between 0.9 and 1.0 in size of reflection coefficient at the first FEM ( 310 ) relative to a frequency of a signal at the second band, and as to be positioned between −50° and 30° in phase of reflection coefficient at the first FEM ( 310 ), and the second time constant determined by the sixth and seventh circuits ( 321 ,  322 ) disposed inside the second FEM ( 320 ) may be so determined as to be between 0.9 and 1.0 in size of reflection coefficient at the second FEM ( 320 ) relative to a frequency of a signal at the first band, and as to be positioned between −50° and 30° in phase of the reflection coefficient at the second FEM ( 320 ). 
         [0045]    The first circuit ( 311 ), the fourth circuit ( 314 ) and the fifth circuit ( 315 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a matching circuit that decreases a reflection coefficient by matching impedances of first load ( 340 ) and antenna ( 330 ) at a signal of first band. 
         [0046]    The sixth circuit ( 321 ) and the seventh circuit ( 322 ) included in the second FEM ( 320 ) may become a matching circuit that decreases a reflection coefficient by matching impedances of second load ( 350 ) and antenna ( 330 ) at a signal of second band. When a first signal and a second signal having a phase difference is included in a signal of first band, the fourth circuit ( 314 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a phase branching circuit that branches a phase of relevant first signal and a phase of relevant second signal. 
         [0047]    The fifth circuit ( 315 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) and the seventh circuit ( 322 ) included in the second FEM ( 320 ) may become a phase moving circuit that moves a phase of a signal of second band. The fifth circuit ( 315 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a cut-off circuit that passes a signal of first band and cuts-off a signal of second band. Furthermore, the sixth circuit ( 321 ) included in the second FEM ( 320 ) may be a cut-off circuit that passes a signal of second band, and cuts-off a signal of first band. 
         [0048]    The first circuit ( 311 ), the third circuit ( 313 ) and the fifth circuit ( 315 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a circuit that determines a spurious characteristic relative to a signal of first band, and the sixth circuit ( 321 ) included in the second FEM ( 320 ) may become a circuit that determines a spurious characteristic relative to a signal of second band. 
         [0049]    The second circuit ( 312 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a bypass circuit that bypasses a signal of first band, and the third circuit ( 313 ) included in the first FEM ( 310 ) may become a BALUN circuit that converts a balance signal to an unbalance signal relative to first and second signals included in a signal of first band, and converts an unbalance signal to a balance signal. 
         [0050]    The sixth circuit ( 321 ) and the seventh circuit ( 322 ) included in the second FEM ( 320 ) may become a bandwidth determining circuit that determines a bandwidth of a signal at the second band. Furthermore, the second FEM ( 320 ) may further include an eighth circuit (not shown) in order to more finely adjust a bandwidth of a signal at the second band than the sixth and seventh circuits ( 321 ,  322 ) determine the bandwidth of a signal at the second band. 
         [0051]    Furthermore, the second FEM ( 320 ) may further include a ninth circuit (not shown) that decreases generation of second harmonic of a signal at second band, and, if necessary, may further include a tenth circuit (not shown) that decreases a third harmonic of a signal at the second band. 
         [0052]      FIGS. 4 to 7  are detailed views illustrating an RF module according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, where the circuits illustrated in  FIGS. 4 to 7  show a detailed exemplary embodiments of RF module according to the present invention explained in  FIG. 3 , and the RF module according to the present invention is not limited in being realized by these exemplary embodiments. 
         [0053]    Referring to  FIG. 4 , an RF module may include a first circuit ( 411 ) to a seventh circuit ( 422 ). Here, the first circuit ( 411 ) to the seventh circuit ( 422 ) may include at least one of capacitors (C 1 ˜C 6 ) and inductors (L 1 ˜L 6 ), and may include line resistors, albeit not being illustrated, as resistor values. Furthermore, each of the first circuit ( 411 ) to the seventh circuit ( 422 ) may correspond to each of the first circuit ( 311 ) to the seventh circuit ( 322 ) explained in  FIG. 3 . 
         [0054]    To be more specific, the first circuit ( 411 ) may include a capacitor (C 1 ) and an inductor (L 1 ). Furthermore, the first circuit ( 411 ) may determine a spurious characteristic of a signal of first band, along with the third circuit ( 413 ) and the fifth circuit ( 415 ). Still furthermore, the first circuit ( 411 ) may match impedances of first load ( 440 ) and antenna ( 430 ), along with the fourth circuit ( 414 ) and fifth circuit ( 415 ). The second circuit ( 412 ) may include a capacitor (C 2 ), and may bypass a signal of first band. 
         [0055]    The third circuit ( 413 ) may include a capacitor (C 3 ). Furthermore, the third circuit ( 413 ) may convert a balance signal to an unbalance signal relative to first and second signals included in a signal of first band, and convert an unbalance signal to a balance signal. In addition, the third circuit ( 413 ) may determine a spurious characteristic of a signal of first band, along with the first circuit ( 411 ) and the fifth circuit ( 415 ). 
         [0056]    The fourth circuit ( 414 ) may include a capacitor (C 4 ) and an inductor (L 2 ). Furthermore, the fourth circuit ( 414 ) may branch phases of first and second signals included in the first signal. Still furthermore, the fourth circuit ( 414 ) may match impedances of first load ( 440 ) and antenna ( 430 ), along with the first circuit ( 411 ) and fifth circuit ( 415 ). 
         [0057]    The fifth circuit ( 415 ) may include a capacitor (C 5 ) and inductors (L 3 , L 4 ). Furthermore, the fifth circuit ( 415 ) may interrupt a signal of second band. In addition, the fifth circuit ( 415 ) may move a phase of a signal at the second band along with the seventh circuit ( 422 ), and match impedances of first load ( 440 ) and antenna ( 430 ), along with the first circuit ( 411 ) and the fourth circuit ( 414 ). Furthermore, the fifth circuit ( 415 ) may determine a spurious characteristic of a signal of first band, along with the first circuit ( 411 ) and the third circuit ( 413 ). 
         [0058]    The sixth circuit ( 421 ) may include a capacitor (C 6 ) and an inductor (L 6 ). The sixth circuit ( 421 ) may interrupt a signal of first band, and determine a bandwidth of a signal of third band, along with the seventh circuit ( 422 ), and may match impedances of second load ( 450 ) and antenna ( 430 ). Furthermore, the sixth circuit ( 421 ) may determine a spurious characteristic relative to a signal of second band. 
         [0059]    The seventh circuit ( 422 ) may include a capacitor (C 5 ). The seventh circuit ( 422 ) may determine a bandwidth of a signal of third band, along with the sixth circuit ( 421 ), and may match impedances of second load ( 450 ) and antenna ( 430 ). Furthermore, the seventh circuit ( 4221 ) may move phase of a signal at second band, along with the fifth circuit ( 415 ). 
         [0060]    Particularly, a detailed explanation will be provided as under in which the first circuit ( 411 ), the third circuit ( 413 ) and the fifth circuit ( 415 ) determine the spurious characteristic relative to a signal of first band, when a frequency of first band is approximately 2.4 GHz, and a frequency of second band is approximately 5 GHz. 
         [0061]    Capacitor values of capacitors (C 1 , C 5 ) and inductance values of inductors (L 4 , L 5 ) may be so set as to allow a circuit ( 411   a ) in which the capacitor (C 1 ) and the inductor (L 5 ) included in the first circuit ( 411 ) are serially connected, and a circuit ( 415   a ) in which the capacitor (C 5 ) and the inductor (L 4 ) included in the fifth circuit ( 415 ) are serially connected, to be resonant at 4.0 GHz˜5.1 GHz. 
         [0062]    Furthermore, when an SRF (Self-Resonant Frequency, 4.0 GHz˜6.0 GHz) of the capacitor (C 3 ) included in the third circuit ( 413 ) is utilized, configuration can be made free from inductors. To be more specific, resonance can be implemented at 4.0 GHz˜5.1 GHz without a separate inductor, when a capacitor value of the capacitor (C 3 ) included in the third circuit ( 413 ) is 4.0 pF. 
         [0063]    Next, a detailed explanation will be provided hereunder about contents of the sixth circuit ( 421 ) that determines a spurious characteristic relative to a signal of second band, when a frequency of first band is approximately 2.4 GHz, and a frequency of second band is approximately 5 GHz. 
         [0064]    A capacitance value of the capacitor (C 6 ) and an inductance value of the inductance (L 6 ) may be so set as to allow a circuit ( 421   a ), in which the capacitor (C 6 ) and the inductor (L 6 ) included in the sixth circuit ( 421 ) are serially connected, to generate a first resonance at 2.3 GHz˜2.5 GHz, to generate a second resonance 4.0 GHz˜6.0 GHz, and to lastly generate a third resonance at 11.0 GHz˜14.0 GHz. 
         [0065]    Through this configuration, the RF module of  FIG. 4  can electrically separate a path of RF module corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands even without being disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, the RF module of  FIG. 4  can reduce a branch loss and a path loss that may be generated by a diplexer, simplify and miniaturize an entire circuit and to decrease a manufacturing cost of the module. 
         [0066]    Now, referring to  FIG. 5 , the RF module may include first circuit ( 411 ) to seventh circuit ( 422 ), and may further include an eighth circuit ( 423 ) and a ninth circuit ( 424 ). No repetition will be made for a same configuration as that explained through  FIG. 4  among the configurations included in the RF module of  FIG. 5 , and explanation will be centered on a configuration that is different by comparing with  FIG. 4 . 
         [0067]    The fifth circuit ( 416 ) may omit a circuit ( 415   a ) in which the capacitor (C 5 ) and the inductor (L 4 ) are serially connected as illustrated in  FIG. 4 , when configuration is formed using an SRF of an inductor. That is, the fifth circuit ( 416 ) may be implemented by including one inductor (L 3 ). The eighth circuit ( 423 ) may include a capacitor (C 7 ). Furthermore, the eighth circuit ( 423 ) may more finely adjust a bandwidth of a signal at the second band than the sixth and seventh circuits ( 421 ,  422 ) determine the bandwidth of a signal at the second band. 
         [0068]    The ninth circuit ( 424 ) may include a capacitor (C 8 ). Furthermore, the ninth circuit ( 424 ) may reduce generation of second harmonic of a signal at the second band. That is, through the configuration thus explained, the RF module of  FIG. 5  can electrically separate a path of RF module corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands even without being disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, the RF module of  FIG. 5  can more finely adjust a bandwidth of a signal at the second band and reduce generation of second harmonic of a signal at the second band. 
         [0069]    Now, referring to  FIG. 6 , the RF module may include first circuit ( 411 ) to ninth circuit ( 424 ). No repetition will be made for a same configuration as that explained through  FIG. 5  among the configurations included in the RF module of  FIG. 6 , and explanation will be centered on a configuration that is different by comparing with  FIG. 5 . 
         [0070]    The fifth circuit ( 417 ) may be so set as to allow an inductance value of inductance (L 3 ) illustrated in  FIG. 5  to be zero (0). That is, the fifth circuit ( 417 ) may be implemented by including only a line resistor, and by not including an inductor and a capacitor. 
         [0071]    The sixth circuit ( 421 ) may not be implemented by a circuit ( 415   a ) in which a capacitor (C 6 ) and an inductor (L 6 ) are serially connected as illustrated in  FIG. 5 , but may be implemented using a circuit ( 421   b ) including a capacitor (C 6 ) by setting a capacitance value of the capacitor (C 6 ) at a particular value to thereby remove an inductor. 
         [0072]    Through the configuration thus explained, the RF module of  FIG. 6  can electrically separate a path of RF module corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands even without being disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, the RF module of  FIG. 6  can further simplify and miniaturize an entire circuit and to further decrease a manufacturing cost of a module. 
         [0073]    Now, referring to  FIG. 7 , the RF module may include first circuit ( 411 ) to ninth circuit ( 424 ), and may further include a tenth circuit ( 425 ). No repetition will be made for a same configuration as that explained through  FIG. 5  among the configurations included in the RF module of  FIG. 7 , and explanation will be centered on a configuration that is different by comparing with  FIG. 5 . 
         [0074]    The fifth circuit ( 418 ) may be implemented by patterning one inductor (L 3 ) illustrated in  FIG. 5 . 
         [0075]    The tenth circuit ( 425 ) may include a capacitor (C 9 ). Furthermore, the tenth circuit ( 425 ) may be so configured as to reduce generation of a third harmonic of a signal at the second band. 
         [0076]    That is, through the configuration thus explained, the RF module of  FIG. 7  can electrically separate a path of RF module corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands even without being disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, the RF module of  FIG. 7  can reduce generation of third harmonic of a signal at the second band. 
         [0077]      FIGS. 8 to 10  are schematic views illustrating an implementation characteristic of the present invention, where  FIG. 8  is a view illustrating a phase difference caused by frequencies of first signal and second signal included in a signal of first band when a frequency of first band is 2.4 GHz. For information, an ideal phase difference between the first signal and the second signal is 180°. 
         [0078]    First, a first graph ( 510 ) of an absolute value of slope being smallest illustrates a phase difference between the first and second signals measured by a conventional RF module disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, a second graph ( 520 ) having a constant slope with an absolute value of a relevant slope being the greatest illustrates a phase difference between the first and second signals measured by the RF module according to the present invention, and a third graph ( 530 ) in which a slope is abruptly changed based on a particular frequency illustrates a phase difference between the first and second signals measured by the RF module according to the present invention explained through  FIG. 5 . 
         [0079]    Compared with the first graph ( 510 ), although the second and third graphs ( 520 ,  530 ) show that a scope of illustrating a phase difference caused by a frequency increases, it can be ascertained that a path of RF module corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands can be electrically separated even without being disposed with a diplexer. 
         [0080]      FIG. 9  is a view illustrating a loss of a path to which a signal of second band is transmitted, when a frequency of second band is 5 GHz. 
         [0081]    First, a first graph ( 610 ) of an absolute value of path loss being the greatest at a frequency of 5 GHz illustrates a path loss measured by the conventional RF module disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, a second graph ( 620 ) of an absolute value of path loss being the greatest at a frequency of 6 GHz illustrates a path loss measured by the RF module according to the present invention explained through  FIG. 4 . Next, a third graph ( 630 ) in which an absolute value of path loss is not abruptly changed despite changes in frequency illustrates a path loss measured by the RF module according to the present invention explained through  FIG. 5 . 
         [0082]    Compared with the first graph ( 610 ), and when a frequency of second band is 5 GHz, it can be ascertained that a path loss of the RF module according to the present invention is reduced in the second and third graphs ( 620 ,  630 ) that are not disposed with a diplexer. 
         [0083]      FIG. 10  is a view illustrating a reflection loss of a signal at the second band when a frequency of second band is 5 GHz. 
         [0084]    First, a first graph ( 710 ) having a smallest absolute value of reflection loss being the smallest at a frequency of 5 GHz illustrates a reflection loss measured by the conventional RF module disposed with a diplexer. Furthermore, a second graph ( 720 ) in which an absolute value of reflection loss is not abruptly changed despite changes in frequency illustrates a reflection loss measured by the RF module according to the present invention explained through  FIG. 5 . Next, a third graph ( 730 ) in which an absolute value of reflection loss is greatest at a frequency of 5.55 GHz illustrates a reflection loss measured by the RF module according to the present invention explained through  FIG. 6 . 
         [0085]    Compared with the first graph ( 710 ), it can be ascertained from the second graph ( 720 ) and the third graph ( 730 ) that a reflection loss of RF module according to the present invention not disposed with a diplexer and not disposed with a separate matching circuit is similar to a reflection loss of an RF module disposed with a diplexer, when a frequency of second band is 5 GHz. 
         [0086]    Graphs in  FIGS. 8 to 10  illustrate a result so implemented as to have a time constant for separating signals corresponding to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz in the first FEM and the second FEM included in the RF module when a frequency of first band is 2.4 GHz and a frequency of second band is 5 GHz. Furthermore, it should be apparent that implementation can be so made as to have a time constant for separating signals corresponding to other frequencies in response to setting of a plurality of elements disposed in the first circuit ( 411 ) to the ninth circuit ( 424 ) included in the RF module according to the present invention. 
         [0087]    In short, the RF module according to the present invention, unlike the conventional RF module, can electrically separate a path of a signal corresponding to a frequency of mutually different bands even without being disposed with a diplexer. As a result, the RF module according to the present invention can reduce a power branch loss, an impedance matching loss and a path loss generated by a diplexer.
