METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR SETTING A RADIO FREQUENCY GAIN

摘要

In setting a radio frequency gain for wireless communications during an initial synchronization phase, at least an upper threshold value (308,310) for a radio frequency gain (304) is set. The radio frequency gain (304) is adjusted during the initial synchronization phase where user equipment is first trying to receive synchronization signals in a transmission from a base station. The radio frequency gain (304) is limited by the threshold value (308,310). This has particular application to Time Division Duplex (TDD) and Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) networks.
