Patent ID: 7190974

Claim:
In an integrated circuit wireless communication device, a method for controlling wireless communications with at least two wireless transceiver circuits, comprising: generating a first antenna control signal at a first pin set of said wireless communication device, said first antenna control signal to be used for controlling receiving or transmitting operations over a first plurality of antennas coupled to a first wireless transceiver circuit for a first communication packet; routing said first antenna control signal to the first wireless transceiver circuit upon detecting that the first communication packet is to be received or transmitted using the first wireless transceiver circuit; generating a second antenna control signal at the first pin set of said wireless communication device, said second antenna control signal to be used for controlling receiving or transmitting operations over a second plurality of antennas coupled to a second wireless transceiver circuit for a second communication packet; and routing said second antenna control signal to the second wireless transceiver circuit upon detecting that the second communication packet is to be received or transmitted using the second wireless transceiver circuit.
