Can a same antenna be used for transmission and reception when the transmission and reply frequencies are 63Mhz apart?

Yes in principle, Are you wanting to receive and transmit at the same time?.
Regarding the actual antenna the most simple method of producing a dual band unit is to run two quarter wavelengths of wire on the outside of a tube spaced apart, trim the lowest frequency leg for minimum return loss then the higher frequency leg to follow. If you are wanting to Tx and Rx at the same time you will need some sort of filter in the Rx leg, depending on frequency cavity filters are not difficult to make, depending on the power transmitted you may get away with some open circuit quaterwave stubs tuned for the Rx frequency.. If you let me know what frequencies you need I'll calculate the lengths for you. |

Almost certainly - though what it 63 MHz as a % of the lower frequency?
GSM devices use same antenna for 850/900 and 1800/1900 by designing resonances. There are plenty of devices operating above 2 GHz with TX/RX seperation on 100 MHz or more because antenna works sufficientlyn well at cF +/- 5 or 10% You might have more trouble with an antenna working at 100 kHz and 63.1 MHz though

It depends. What frequency is being transmitted, the power, how many channels bandwidth of channels, the recieve bandwidth and sensitivity etc. If multiple carriers it could be intermod city.
Everyone always forgets about the uplink. |
