Patent ID: 6973307

Claim:
A wireless communications device for receiving global positioning system (GPS) information, comprising: an antenna for receiving a plurality of communication band signals; a triplexer connected to the antenna, the triplexer comprising: a low pass filter for filtering a cellular band having a center frequency of approximately 800 MHz from the plurality of communication band signals and for connecting the filtered cellular band to a first triplexer output; a high pass filter for filtering a PCS band having a center frequency of approximately 1900 MHz from the plurality of communication band signals and for connecting the filtered PCS band to a second triplexer output; a band pass filter for separating a GPS band having a center frequency of approximately 1575 MHz from the plurality of communication band signals and for connecting the filtered GPS band to a third triplexer output; a cellular communications band duplexer connected to the first triplexer output for receiving the filtered cellular band; a PCS communications band duplexer connected to the second triplexer output for receiving the filtered PCS band; a global positioning system (GPS) module connected to the third triplexer output for receiving the filtered GPS band, the GPS module comprising an impedance matching circuit to match impedance at a GPS signal frequency.
