Abstract
A multi-mode wireless communications device (100) and methods therefor, including a first transceiver having a continuous reception mode receiver coupled to a first antenna (138) and a second transceiver having a second transmitter coupled to a second antenna (140). In one mode of operation, the continuous reception mode receiver receives an uncompressed downlink signal at the same time the other receiver receives a signal. In another mode of operation, the continuous reception mode receiver receives an uncompressed downlink signal at the same time a transmitter of the second transceiver transmits a signal. In another mode of operation, a continuous reception mode transmitter of the first transceiver transmits an uplink signal at the same time the other receiver receives a signal.
