Abstract: In an aspect a transceiver is provided. The transceiver may include a plurality of local oscillator (LO) generators configured to generate a plurality of LO signals, respectively, for mixing with one or more communication signals. The transceiver also includes a first synthesizer configured to generate a first reference signal and a second synthesizer configured to generate a second reference signal. The transceiver also includes a distribution circuit. The distribution circuit is configured to switch an input to at least one of the LO generators between the first and second reference signals for tuning each of the at least one of the LO generators between two different LO frequencies and to input to the other ones of the LO generators the first reference signal for tuning each of the other ones of the LO generators to an LO frequency.

Abstract: A method for wireless communication is described herein. The method may include advertising support by a wireless device for a first bandwidth mode and a second bandwidth mode, wherein the first bandwidth mode utilizes a single channel and the second bandwidth mode utilizes channel bonding between a plurality of channels. The method may also include switching a current bandwidth mode of the wireless device from one of the bandwidth modes to the other of the bandwidth modes and adjusting a number of multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) spatial streams supported by the wireless device in response to the switching.
