Diversity receiver with shared local oscillator signal in diversity mode

An apparatus comprising:

• a primary receiver having a primary mixer configured to down-convert a primary signal and a supplemental mixer configured to down-convert a secondary signal, wherein the primary mixer and the supplemental mixer share a primary local oscillator (LO) signal;
• a secondary receiver having a secondary mixer configured to down-convert the secondary signal;
• a controller configured to enable the supplemental mixer to down-convert the secondary signal when operating in a diversity mode;
• and
• one or more additional receivers having one or more additional mixers, configured to down-convert one or more additional received signals, respectively;
• the primary receiver further configured to have one or more additional supplemental mixers configured to down-convert the one or more additional received signals, respectively, wherein the primary mixer and the one or more additional supplemental mixers are configured to share the primary local oscillator (LO) signal;
• and
• the controller further configured to enable corresponding selected additional supplemental mixers to down-convert selected additional received signals based on a selected operating mode.
