Abstract

A method and apparatus for performing connection control in a wireless communication system is described. In one embodiment, an apparatus is used in a wireless communication system for communicating with a wireless network, and the apparatus comprises a host processor, a transceiver, a physical interface coupling the host processor and the transceiver; and a memory accessible by the host processor and the transceiver to exchange information between the host processor and the transceiver. The memory has multiple banks that include: a first bank to store information being transferred from the host processor to the transceiver, and a second bank to store information being transferred from the transceiver to the host processor, the second bank being different than the first bank, to facilitate full-duplex communication of packet data between the host processor and the transceiver.
