Abstract
An apparatus includes Radio Frequency (RF) circuitry and baseband circuitry. The RF circuitry is configured to receive strobe messages that are based on a system clock over a digital interface, and to communicate synchronously with the system clock based on the received strobe messages in accordance with a Radio Access Technology (RAT) that is selected from among multiple different RATs. The baseband circuitry is configured to generate the strobe messages, to delay the strobe messages by a delay that depends on the selected RAT, and to send the delayed strobe messages to the RF circuitry over the digital interface.
