Patent ID: 8543794

Claim:
An adaptive mobile communications device comprising: a configurable computational logic unit comprising a first plurality of computational elements coupled to each other via a first computational interconnection network to configure interconnections between the first plurality of computational elements in response to first configuration information to perform a first operation of a first communication mode function; and a configurable complex logic unit comprising a second plurality of computational elements coupled to each other via a second interconnection network to configure the interconnections between the second plurality of computational elements in response to the first configuration information to perform a second operation of the first communication mode function, the second plurality of computational elements having different types of computational elements than those of the first plurality of computational elements, the second plurality of computational elements being heterogeneous and each for performing an arithmetic function, each of the second plurality of computational elements having a fixed architecture of components with fixed connections between the components; and wherein the interconnections between the computational elements of the configurable computational and configurable complex logic units are configurable via second configuration information to perform a second communication mode function.
