Abstract
A system and method are provided for sequencing radio events in a mobile device with a multi downlink multi carrier receiver. In the mobile device, there is a processor in communication with a timing control unit (TCU), whereby the TCU is in communication with two or more radios. The processor collects one or more radio events corresponding to the two or more radios and then sorts the radio events from highest priority to lowest priority to form a sorted list. The processor then loads the sorted list, beginning with a highest priority radio event, onto the TCU.
Claims24
A method in a wireless communication device, said method comprising:
- collecting radio events;
- converting said radio events to timing control unit (TCU) instructions;
- mapping each of said TCU instructions to a corresponding TCU output to be each executed at a given time;
- and
- if two given TCU outputs are to be executed at consecutive times and are identical, said processor cancelling one of said TCU instructions.
A wireless communication device comprising a processor, said wireless communication device configured to:
- collect radio events;
- convert said radio events to timing control unit (TCU) instructions;
- map each of said TCU instructions to a corresponding TCU output to be each executed at a given time;
- and
- if two given TCU outputs are to be executed at consecutive times and are identical, said wireless device is configured to cancel one of the TCU instructions.
