14. A system, comprising:
-
a first receiver path; a second receiver path; a first transmitter path; a second transmitter path; and control logic to select between; operating the first receiver path as a first channel of a first communication mode and the second receiver path as a second channel of the first communication mode, or operating the first receiver path in the first communication mode and the second receiver path in a second communication mode, the second communication mode being different from the first communication mode. - View Dependent Claims (15)

19. A method comprising:
-
determining one or more communication modes to be utilized within a wireless communication environment; configuring a transceiver system such that if only one communication mode is to be utilized, the system is operable in a single mode multiple input, multiple output, or multiple input and multiple output configuration, and if more than one communication mode is to be utilized, the transceiver system is operable in a multiple mode configuration; and transmitting or receiving one or more wireless signals within the wireless communication environment. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
