Time interleaved multiple standard single radio system apparatus and method

摘要

Multiple wireless communication standards can be supported in a single radio apparatus by time interleaving communications with the multiple communication standards. A single radio can be controlled to time interleave communications standards to successively activate a single communication channel for each of the communication standards. The single radio device can be configured to order the supported communication standards in a hierarchy to provide priority to certain communications. Time interleaving wireless communications over standards that support burst communications, such as time multiplexed wireless communication systems or wireless packet data systems, allows a single radio to seamlessly support multiple standards with no loss of data.
