1. A cellular phone, comprising:
- a first wireless transceiver configured to receive baseband signals wirelessly transmitted from a remote device to the cellular phone, wherein the baseband signals are generated based on frequency modulated (FM) signals, wherein the FM signals include broadcasted FM radio content, and wherein the FM signals have been tuned to a FM frequency and down-converted from a radio frequency (RF) to baseband by the remote device to generate the baseband signals; and
an FM processing module configured to (i) receive the baseband signals, and (ii) generate, based on the baseband signals, processed FM signals including the broadcasted FM radio content,wherein the first wireless transceiver is further configured to transmit, from the cellular phone to the remote device, the processed FM signals including the broadcasted FM radio content.

Abstract
A cellular phone comprises a first wireless transceiver that receives baseband (BB) signals, which are based on frequency modulated (FM) signals that have been tuned and down-converted from a radio frequency (RF) to the BB by a remote device. An FM processing module receives the BB signals and generates processed FM signals based on the BB signals.
