R201, C201, C202 are the matching circuit, the value should be defined by the antenna design. Normally R201 is 
1.2nH, C202 is 1.5pF and C201 are not mounted. 
 
There are some suggestions for placing components and RF trace lying for GSM and Bluetooth RF traces:   

 

The RF connector is used for conducted test, so keep it as close to pin GSM_ANT as possible; 

 

Antenna matching circuit should be closed to the antenna; 

 

Keep the RF traces as 50Ω; 

 

The RF traces should be kept far away from the high frequency signals and strong disturbing source.   

 

4.19.3.

 

FM Antenna Interface 

 

The module provides 2 FM antenna pad named FM_ANTP and FM_ANTN, these are difference signal. The FM 
antenna interface circuit is recommended as following:   

Moudle

Normally, R301\R302\R303\R304 are 0Ω, C301\C302\C303\C304 are not mounted. 
The earphone is often used for FM antenna, as an example, the pin GND of the 3.5mm earphone is connected to 
the FM interface. The circuit is recommended as following:
