A gain processor circuit calculates a first AGC signal for a first one of a number of receive chains, each including a gain-controlled front-end circuit, and derives one or more additional AGC signals from the calculation of that first AGC signal for any remaining chains. The first AGC signal may be calculated by tracking received power for one or more of the receive chains. An AGC signal may be derived for each additional receive chain by assuming that its received power is the same, i.e., the same AGC command is used. Alternatively, an additional AGC command is derived based on a scaling value determined from a ratio of received powers for the first and additional receive chains. Such powers may be expressed as channel tap powers, which may be available from other circuit elements associated with signal demodulation. Alternatively, the scaling value further incorporates received interference and/or noise powers.
