A wireless device has a BRP-CRP interface that includes a dual-port frame memory having a first access port and a second access port in which data can be written to the dual-port frame memory through the first access port at the same time that data is read from the dual-port frame memory through the second access port. A bit rate processor performs bit rate processing on input data and writes data resulting from the bit rate processing to the dual-port frame memory through the first access port. A chip rate processor reads data from the dual-port frame memory through the second access port and performs chip rate processing on the data read from the dual-port frame memory. A data processor executes a software application that writes data to the dual-port frame memory through the first access port and reads data from the dual-port frame memory through the second access port.
