| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a multiple band mobile radio (also referred t o as a Wireless Communication Device (WCD)) (102) capable of communicating wit h both a satellite communication system (108, 114) and a terrestrial communication system (120, 122). The satellite communication system can be a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communication system. The terrestrial communication system can be a Personal Communication System (PCS), or a cellular system, including either an analog or a digitally based cellular system. The WCD can concurrently receive signals from the terrestrial communication system and the satellite communication system. Also, the WCD (102, 300, 470, 500, 600) can receive signals useful for position location, such as a GPS satellite signal alone, or both GPS and satellite communicatio n signals, simultaneously.
