Claim Text:
1. A wireless communication device configured for receiving a multiple carrier signal, comprising: a single-chip signal splitting carrier aggregation receiver architecture that comprises: a primary antenna; a secondary antenna; and a transceiver chip, wherein the single-chip signal splitting carrier aggregation receiver architecture reuses a simultaneous hybrid dual receiver path, the simultaneous hybrid dual receiver path comprising a first routing from the primary antenna through a primary receiver to a tertiary receiver and a second routing from the secondary antenna through a secondary receiver to a quaternary receiver, wherein the first routing comprises a third routing between a first stage amplifier of a source low noise amplifier of the primary receiver and a second stage amplifier of a target low noise amplifier of the tertiary receiver, and wherein the second routing comprises a fourth routing between a first stage amplifier of a source low noise amplifier of the secondary receiver and a second stage amplifier of a target low noise amplifier of the quaternary receiver.
