Abstract
A preferred embodiment of the invention advantageously provides a method for integrating a plurality of radio systems in a unified transceiver structure and the device of the same. According to this general embodiment of the invention, all components for the necessary communication protocols of a device are determined by selecting the operation ranges of the components and designing a mechanism to adjust the operation parameters of the shared components for conforming to the utilized communications system. Therefore, only one radio frequency (RF) module is required for a communications device having a plurality of communication systems. An end user can advantageously carry a single and compact wireless device for various communications systems.

51. A communications device for integrating a plurality of radio systems in a unified transceiver structure wherein the radio systems are respectively conformed to a plurality of communications modes with corresponding communications standards, the communications device comprising:
-
a baseband system for signal processing;
an interface connected to said baseband system;
an antenna;
a bandpass filter (BPF) connected to said antenna;
a switch transmitting and receiving radio frequency (RF) signals from said antenna wherein said transmitted RF signals pass through said switch if said baseband system is in a transmitting mode, and said received RF signals pass through said switch if said baseband system is in a receiving mode;
a radio frequency (RF) transceiver located between said switch and said interface wherein said RF transceiver further comprises;
a receiver comprising a first-stage amplifier and filter, down-converters, a second-stage amplifier and filter respectively operable in response to an operative radio system selected from said radio systems;
a transmitter comprising a first-stage amplifier and filter, up-converters, a combiner, a second-stage amplifier and filter respectively operable in response to said selected operative radio system. - View Dependent Claims (52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80)
