PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE WITH HIGH-SPEED DATA COMMUNICATION
First Claim
1. A portable computing structure comprising:
- a Radio Frequency (RF) link;
a core module communicatively coupled to the RF link;
a plurality of multi-mode RF units communicatively coupled to the RF link, the core module configured to;
detect a blocker that adversely affects high-speed data communication between two multi-mode RF units;
determine a radiation pattern alternative for the high-speed data communication to reduce the adverse effects caused by the blocker; and
enact the radiation pattern alternative for the two multi-mode RF units.

Abstract
A portable computing device includes a radio frequency (RF) wired link, a core module, and a plurality of multi-mode RF units. When one or more of the multi-mode RF units are supporting a high-speed data communication, the core module is operable to detect a blocker that is adversely affecting the high-speed data communication. The core module is further operable to determine whether a radiation pattern alternative for the high-speed data communication will reduce the adverse affects on the high-speed data communication. When the radiation pattern alternative for the high-speed data communication will reduce the adverse affects on the high-speed data communication, the core module is further operable to enable the radiation pattern alternative. The one or more multi-mode RF units are operable to adjust at least one of transmission and reception of the high-speed data communication in accordance with the radiation pattern alternative.
