Patent ID: 8655299

Claim:
A surface acoustic wave (SAW)-less receiver comprises: a front end module (FEM) interface module operable to receive an inbound radio frequency (RF) signal; an RF to intermediate frequency (IF) receiver section that includes: a frequency translated bandpass filter (FTBPF) that includes: a switching network; and a plurality of baseband impedances forming a baseband filter response, wherein the switching network is operable to couple the plurality of baseband impedances to the FEM interface in accordance with a plurality of phase-offset RF clock signals to frequency translate the baseband filter response to an RF filter response and to RF bandpass filter the inbound RF signal to produce a filtered inbound RF signal; a low noise amplifier module (LNA) operable to amplify the filtered inbound RF signal to produce an amplified inbound RF signal; and a mixing section operable to mix the amplified inbound RF signal with a local oscillation to produce an inbound IF signal; and a receiver IF to baseband section operable to convert the inbound IF signal into one or more inbound symbol streams.
