The present invention relates to a wireless USB modem device supporting
dual service for portable Internet and digital broadcasting. The wireless
USB modem device includes a portable Internet communication module and a
digital broadcast reception module. The wireless USB modem device
includes a USB hub connected to USB interfaces of both the portable
Internet communication module and the digital broadcast reception module,
and configured to relay data to a user terminal. A switching mode power
supply unit is implemented in a DC-DC switching mode, is supplied with
power from the user terminal and is configured to apply power to the
portable Internet communication module and the digital broadcast
reception module so that the portable Internet communication module and
the digital broadcast reception module can be simultaneously driven.
Accordingly, a separate control unit for controlling USB interfaces is
not required, and the number of peripherals connected to the USB port of
the portable user terminal can be reduced. Further, portable Internet
service and digital broadcasting service can be simultaneously provided,
thus enabling bidirectional digital multimedia broadcasting service and
Internet service to be simultaneously supported anytime and anywhere
without regard to spatial or temporal restrictions.
