Abstract
A technique for receiving and transmitting wireless telecommunications through use of a generic architecture is disclosed. The present invention mitigates the complexity of different transceiver operations by allowing a generic architecture to be used in a variety of situations with different channels and different telecommunications standards. An illustrative embodiment of the present invention comprises: receiving uplink analog RF signals at a base station; converting the uplink analog wide-band RF signals into IF uplink digital signals at an analog-to-digital converter; converting the IF uplink digital signals into a number of uplink channels; and demodulating selected narrow-band uplink channels from the total number of narrow-band uplink channels.
