    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to methods and apparatus for coexistent radio frequency (RF) systems in a wireless device. Control of a wireless device includes detecting when a turn on signal is issued to a first radio system, and then controlling the second radio system to either modify the operation of receiver circuitry in the second radio system to protect components within that system, or modify transmit circuitry to stop transmissions for protecting components within one radio system potentially affected by transmission from the other radio system in the wireless device. Disclosed also is monitoring of transmission states of the radio systems based on reading messages between the first and second radio systems and issuing a notification message based thereon such that one of the radio systems may suspend monitoring of a transmit channel for permission to transmit in order to reduce power consumption due to such monitoring of the channel.

    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for transceiving signals in multiple modes. In example implementations, an apparatus includes a transceiver that includes a first amplifier; a mixer having at least one input node and at least one output node, with the at least one input node coupled to the first amplifier; and a second amplifier coupled to the at least one output node of the mixer. The transceiver also includes a first register coupled to the first amplifier and a second register coupled to the second amplifier. The transceiver further includes at least one memory realizing a lookup table. The at least one memory is coupled to the first register and the second register. The lookup table includes a first portion corresponding to a first mode of the transceiver and a second portion corresponding to a second mode of the transceiver.

    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for oscillator feedthrough calibration, such as a component arrangement that can be calibrated to account for signal leakage from an oscillator coupled to a mixer circuit. In example aspects, the apparatus includes a mixer circuit having a first stage, a second stage, and tuning circuitry. The first stage includes at least one transistor coupled between a mixer input and a mixer output. The second stage includes one or more transistors coupled between the at least one transistor of the first stage and the mixer output. The one or more transistors are also coupled between a local oscillator signal input and the mixer output. The tuning circuitry includes at least one current source coupled to the at least one transistor of the first stage.
