Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for implementing and using multiband transceiver architectures. In a transmit subsystem that comprises a plurality of transmit paths, a frequency spectrum that is used for transmission of signals may be segmented into a plurality of segments, and each of the segments may be allocated to one of the plurality of transmit paths. Further, performance in each of the plurality of transmit paths may be monitored during transmission of signals, and operation of the transmit subsystem and each of the plurality of transmit paths may be controlled based on the monitored performance. Such control may comprise dynamically performing one or more of modifying operation of one or more of the plurality of transmit paths, modifying assignment of plurality of segments to the plurality of transmit paths, and modifying segmentation of the frequency spectrum.
