Abstract:
An apparatus and method for a communication by a multiple-standby mobile terminal is provided. The apparatus includes a master communication module that directly receives a signal from a communication network and then processes it, or processes a signal to be transmitted and then directly transmits it to the communication network. Additionally, the master communication module indirectly receives a signal from the communication network through a slave communication module and then processes it, or processes a signal to be transmitted and then indirectly transmits it to the communication network through the slave communication module. Therefore, even though the slave communication module has only elements for transmitting and receiving a signal with the other elements eliminated, the multiple-standby mobile terminal may operate favorably.
