RF transceiver device with RF bus
First Claim
1. A radio frequency (RF) transceiver device comprises:
- a processing module including a processing module RF bus transceiver;
memory including a memory RF bus transceiver;
a baseband processing module coupled to convert outbound data into an outbound symbol stream and to convert an inbound symbol stream into inbound data;
an RF section coupled to convert the outbound symbol stream into an outbound RF signal and to convert an inbound RF signal into the inbound symbol stream; and
a RF bus controller coupled to control access to an RF bus for providing the outbound data as an RF bus outbound data signal from the processing module RF bus transceiver or from the memory RF bus transceiver and to control access to the RF bus for providing the inbound data as an RF bus inbound data signal to the processing module RF bus transceiver or to the memory RF bus transceiver.

Abstract
A radio frequency (RF) transceiver device includes a processing module, memory, a baseband processing module, an RF section, an RF bus, and an RF bus controller. The processing module and the memory include an RF bus transceiver. The baseband processing module is coupled to convert outbound data into an outbound symbol stream and to convert an inbound symbol stream into inbound data. The RF section is coupled to convert the outbound symbol stream into an outbound RF signal and to convert an inbound RF signal into the inbound symbol stream. The RF bus controller is coupled to control access to an RF bus for providing the outbound data as an RF bus outbound data signal from the processing module RF bus transceiver or from the memory RF bus transceiver and to control access to the RF bus for providing the inbound data as an RF bus inbound data signal to the processing module RF bus transceiver or to the memory RF bus transceiver.

18. A radio frequency (RF) transceiver device comprises:
-
a processing module including a processing module RF bus transceiver; memory including a memory RF bus transceiver; a baseband processing module; and an RF section coupled to the baseband processing module, wherein the RF section receives an RF bus outbound data signal from one of the processing module RF bus transceiver and the memory RF bus transceiver and an inbound RF signal as a composite inbound RF signal, wherein the RF section converts the composite inbound RF signal into a baseband or near baseband composite inbound signal; the baseband processing module functions to; combine bits of the outbound data and bits of the inbound data to produce composite data, wherein the bits of the outbound data are least significant bits of the composite data and the bits of the inbound data are most significant bits of the composite data; encode the composite data to produce encoded data; interleave the encoded data to produce interleaved data; map the interleaved data to produce mapped data; and convert the mapped data from the frequency domain to the time domain to produce a baseband or near baseband composite outbound signal; and the RF section coupled to convert the baseband or near baseband composite outbound signal into a composite outbound RF signal, wherein the composite outbound RF signal includes an outbound RF signal and RF bus inbound data signal. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21)
