Abstract
A radio communication device has a baseband processor acting as an InterProcessor Communication (IPC) server and an application processor acting as an IPC client. The baseband processor and the application processor communicate with each other via an IPC network. The IPC server and the IPC client can switch functions via negotiation to allow the IPC client to become the new IPC server. The IPC network includes multiple IPC clients, and remaining IPC clients are instructed to change the IPC address of the IPC server if the IPC client becomes the new IPC server. The IPC network allows any processor that adopts the IPC as its interprocessor communication stack to co-exist together and operate as if the two were actually running on the same processor core sharing a common operating system and memory.
