Abstract

See full text

A converged communication device and a method of providing broadband communication and narrowband communication with the converged communication device. The method includes determining a data rate at a broadband transceiver of the converged communication device. The method also includes determining a signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio at a narrowband transceiver of the converged communication device. The method further includes assigning a first communication state to the converged communication device when the data rate is greater than a threshold data rate and the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio is greater than a threshold signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio. The method also includes transmitting, at the broadband transceiver, the broadband communication when the converged communication device is in the first communication state. The method further includes transmitting, at the narrowband transceiver, the narrowband communication when the converged communication device is in the first communication state.
