Patent ID: 8064533

Claim:
A wireless transceiver comprising: a plurality of antennas; a plurality of signal recovery circuits, coupled to the plurality of antennas, that generate a selected number of received signals from a first subset of the plurality of antennas, based on a control signal; a receiver section, coupled to the plurality of signal recovery modules, that recovers an inbound data stream from the selected number of received signals; and a plurality of transmitter sections, coupled to the plurality of antennas, that generate a selected number of transmitted signals to a second subset of the plurality of antennas, based on the control signal; wherein the intersection between the first subset of the plurality of antennas and the second subset of the plurality of antennas is a null set for each value of the control signal and wherein the second subset of the plurality of antennas produce a combined RF signal that is intermodulated based on a first RF signal produced by a first antenna of the second subset of the plurality of antennas and a second RF signal produced by a second antenna of the second subset of the plurality of antennas.
