Default What is a duplexer, diplexer and combiner?

What are the functions of each of these?

Are they used on TX or RX circuits?

I know a cell site uses a duplexer so that it
has an extra RX antenna for diversity. How
does this work? Is the duplexer on the antenna
that transmit/receive combo antenna notching
out the TX frequency so the receiver doesn't get
overloaded by it?
