<p>A method and apparatus for generating the adaptive gain control signals in a communications receiver is disclosed. The present invention can be used with existing two-stage gain architectures, and overcomes many undesirable characteristics of the previous mechanism. An apparatus is presented wherein each of a plurality of RF AGC gain controllable amplifiers (140 and 150) are individually controlled by individual AGC control signals generated by an AGC controller (105) so that the level of the output signal from each of the RF AGC gain controllable amplifiers is individually optimized for tuner performance (170 and 190).</p> |
