Abstract
A mobile radio apparatus for a motor vehicle has a first mobile radio module and a second mobile radio module. Furthermore, a first antenna and a second antenna are provided for transmitting mobile radio signals. To provide robust voice telephony for the motor vehicle that can be implemented with little circuit complexity, a switching device is connected to the antennas and to a respective signal connection of the mobile radio modules and that is designed to take a switching signal as a basis for changing over between a first switching state, in which the first signal connection is coupled to the first antenna and the second signal connection is coupled to the second antenna, and a second switching state, in which the first signal connection is coupled to the second antenna and the second signal connection is coupled to the first antenna.

18. A mobile radio apparatus for a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
a first mobile radio module to interchange a first mobile radio signal with a first external mobile radio station via a first signal connection of the first mobile radio module, the first mobile radio signal being based on a first mobile radio standard or a plurality of mobile radio standards; a second mobile radio module to interchange a second mobile radio signal with a second external mobile radio station via a second signal connection of the second mobile radio module, the second mobile radio signal being based on a second mobile radio standard; first and second antennas to selectively transmit the first and second mobile radio signals; a switching device connected to the first and second antennas and to the first and second signal connections, to change over, based on a switching signal, between a first switching state, in which the first signal connection is coupled to the first antenna and the second signal connection is coupled to the second antenna, and a second switching state, in which the first signal connection is coupled to the second antenna and the second signal connection is coupled to the first antenna; and a changeover device to generate the switching signal, the switching signal being produced so as to switch the switching device to the second switching state at a beginning of a voice transmission. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
