METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING SIGNAL LEVEL IN DIGITAL RECEIVER

摘要

The invention pertains to a method for controlling the signal level in a digital receiver, wherein the level of a received analog signal is controlled in an analog control circuit (35), whereafter the level of the analog signal coming from the analog control circuit (35) is controlled in a digital control circuit (34), the analog signal is converted into a digital one in an A/D converter (13) and the amplification factor of the digital control circuit (34) is adjusted on the basis of the signal level of the digital signal coming from the A/D converter (13). The invention also pertains to an apparatus (30) for controlling signal levels in a digital receiver, said apparatus (30) comprising at least an analog control circuit (35) to control the level of an analog signal and a digital control circuit (34) to control the level of the analog signal produced by the analog control circuit (35).
