Portable computing device with high-speed data communication

A core module of a portable computing structure that supports a plurality of multi-mode Radio Frequency (RF) units, the core module comprising:

• a processing module;
• and
• a Radio Frequency (RF) link interface communicatively coupled to the processing module, wherein the processing module configured to:
• detect a blocker that adversely affects high-speed data communication between two communicatively coupled multi-mode RF units;
• determine a radiation pattern alternative for the high-speed data communication to reduce the adverse effects caused by the blocker;
• and
• enact the radiation pattern alternative for the two multi-mode RF units.

A multi-mode (MM) radio frequency (RF) unit comprising:

• an RF link interface;
• and
• a plurality of RF specific protocol modules, one of the RF specific protocol modules is configured to:
• convert an inbound high-speed data signal into an inbound RF link signal in accordance with an inbound RF link resource allocation;
• convert an outbound RF link signal into an outbound high-speed data signal in accordance with an outbound RF link resource allocation;
• adjust at least one of transmission of the outbound high-speed data signal and reception of the inbound high-speed data signal in accordance with a radiation pattern alternative, wherein the radiation pattern alternative is based upon a blocker's adverse effects on at least one of the inbound and outbound high-speed data signals.
