Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 16:
17. A method of making an apparatus, comprising:
obtaining a plurality of wireless transceiver modules, each wireless transceiver module to be communicatively coupled to a corresponding external transceiver module;
obtaining one or more antennas to exchange signal data with the plurality of external transceiver modules;
obtaining a radio frequency (RF) circulator comprising a plurality of ports, including:
a first port to receive signal data from the one or more antennas;
a second port to output signal data from the plurality of wireless transceiver modules to the one or more antennas; and
a third port to direct signal data from the first port to one or more of the plurality of wireless transceiver modules, and to direct signal data from one or more of the plurality of wireless transceiver modules to the second port;
operatively coupling the first port to the one or more antennas;
operatively coupling the second port to the one or more antennas;
operatively coupling the third port to the plurality of wireless transceiver modules;
operatively coupling a signal splitter/combiner between the RF circulator and the plurality of wireless transceiver modules, the signal splitter/combiner operatively coupled to the third port and configured to:
split the received signal data from the one or more antennas into a plurality of signal channel data corresponding to each of the plurality of wireless transceiver modules; and
combine signal channel data from the plurality of wireless transceiver modules into a multi-channel signal data.
