In the case of Dual Connectivity, EN-DC), the power supplies of each signal processing circuit are connected together. In this case, an additional MMPA module needs to be added in order to realize the EN-DC before the low-frequency signal and the intermediate-frequency signal, and between the low-frequency signal and the high-frequency signal.
