Zusammenfassung:A method includes selecting one of a plurality of transmitter systems used to transmit data. Each transmitter system corresponds to one of a plurality of subbands. Each subband has a bandwidth and at least two of the subbands have different bandwidths. A physical layer technology is common to and used by each transmitter system to transmit on a respective subband. The selected transmitter system transmits the data. An apparatus includes a plurality of transmitter systems, each corresponding to one of a plurality of subbands. Each subband has a bandwidth and at least two of the subbands have different bandwidths. A physical layer technology is common to and used by each transmitter system to transmit on a respective subband. A controller is operable to select one of the transmitter systems to use to transmit data, and is operable to cause the selected transmitter system to transmit the data.
