Abstract

Having a single channel for a transmit/receive (T/R) unit with a single antenna or a single processor would cause a limitation in data transfer rates, so multiple channels are provided. The single processor may have multiple channels for parallel processing of each data stream to process accurately two distinct signals that were more optimally received by two dedicated antennas and two separate T/R units contained within the cellular telephone/mobile wireless device (CT/MD) to improve performance and quality of output. An example is a CT/MD which is optimized for video and voice.
