Abstract:
1. A mobile communications radio receiver for multiple radio network operation, comprising: an RF unit configured to generate a first down-converted signal from a radio signal received from a first terrestrial radio network and a second down-converted signal from a radio signal received from a second terrestrial radio network; a first receiving unit comprising a first user data channel demodulator and a second user data channel demodulator each configured to demodulate a dedicated user data physical channel, and a control channel demodulator configured to demodulate a common control data channel of the first terrestrial radio network based on the first down-converted signal; a second receiving unit comprising a pilot channel demodulator configured to demodulate a pilot channel of the second terrestrial radio network based on the second down-converted signal; and a first data connection configured to couple control data contained in the second down-converted signal to the control channel demodulator of the first receiving unit and to couple user data contained in the second down-converted signal to the second user channel demodulator of the first receiving unit such that user data contained in the first down-converted signal and user data contained in the second down-converted signal can be demodulated simultaneously.
