1. An integrated circuit (IC) comprising:
- a on-chip gyrating circuit that generates a motion parameter based on motion of the IC, wherein the on-chip gyrating circuit is implemented with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology;
an RF transceiver, for coupling to at least one antenna, that generates an outbound RF signal from outbound data based on at least one transmitter control signal and that generates inbound data from an inbound RF signal based on a receiver control signal, wherein the receiver control signal and the transmitter control signal adjust at least one RF parameter of the RF transceiver that is separate from the at least one antenna; and
a processing module, coupled to the on-chip gyrating circuit and the RF transceiver, and that processes the motion parameter, generates the outbound data, and receives the inbound data and wherein processing module adjusts the receiver control signal and the transmitter control signal, based on the motion parameter.

Abstract
An integrated circuit includes an on-chip gyrating circuit that generates a motion parameter based on motion of the IC. An RF transceiver generates an outbound RF signal from outbound data and that generates inbound data from an inbound RF signal. A processing module processes the motion parameter, generates the outbound data, and receives the inbound data.
