A MIMO radio transceiver to support processing of multiple signals for
simultaneous transmission via corresponding ones of a plurality of
antennas and to support receive processing of multiple signals detected
by corresponding ones of the plurality of antennas. The radio transceiver
provides, on a single semiconductor integrated circuit, a receiver
circuit or path for each of a plurality of antennas and a transmit
circuit or path for each of the plurality of antennas. Each receiver
circuit downconverts the RF signal detected by its associated antenna to
a baseband signal. Similarly, each transmit path upconverts a baseband
signal to be transmitted by an assigned antenna.
