Abstract
A transceiver system according to the present invention transmits data utilizing the baseband and one or more frequency separated transmission bands. A baseband transmitter is combined with one or more transmitters that transmit data into one of the frequency separated transmission bands. A baseband receiver is combined with one or more receivers that receive data from the frequency separated transmission bands. Any combination of modulation systems can be utilized (e.g. PAM for the baseband and QAM for the frequency separated bands). A transceiver circuit or chip according to the present invention includes a transmitter and a receiver and communicates with a corresponding transceiver chip. In some embodiments, one baseband PAM transmitter is combined with one frequency separated QAM transmitter.
