A multimode wireless communication includes a digital baseband processing
module, an analog to digital converter module, a digital to analog
converter module, a first radio section, and a second radio section. The
digital baseband processing module is operably coupled to convert
outbound data into outbound digital baseband signals and to convert
inbound digital baseband signals into inbound data. The analog to digital
converter module is operably coupled to convert inbound analog baseband
signals into the inbound digital baseband signals. The digital to analog
converter module is operably coupled to convert the outbound digital
baseband signals into outbound analog baseband signals. The first radio
section is operably coupled to convert the outbound analog baseband
signals into first outbound radio frequency (RF) signals and to convert
first inbound RF signals into the inbound analog baseband signals when
the wireless communication device is in a first mode of operation. The
second radio section is operably coupled to convert the outbound analog
baseband signals into second outbound RF signals and to convert second
inbound RF signals into the inbound analog baseband signals when the
wireless communication device is in a second mode of operation.
