Patent ID: 7920527

Claim:
A communication device comprises: a real-time/non-real-time/radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit (IC) that includes: a first baseband processing module coupled to: convert real-time outbound data that includes at least one of outbound audio signals, outbound video signals, and outbound voice signals into real-time outbound symbols; and convert real-time inbound symbols into real-time inbound data that includes at least one of inbound audio signals, inbound video signals, and inbound voice signals; a second baseband processing module coupled to: convert non-real-time outbound data that includes at least one of outbound text data, outbound graphics, and outbound images into non-real-time outbound symbols; and convert non-real-time inbound symbols into non-real-time inbound data that includes at least one of inbound text data, inbound graphics, and inbound images; and an RF section coupled to: convert the real-time outbound symbols into real-time outbound RF signals; convert real-time inbound RF signals into the real-time inbound symbols; convert the non-real-time outbound symbols into non-real-time outbound RF signals; and convert non-real-time inbound RF signals into the non-real-time symbols.
