Abstract
Embodiments of methods and systems for gain control in a communications device are described. In an embodiment, a method for gain control in a communications device involves detecting a change in an amplification gain that is applied to an analog signal in the communications device and compensating for the change in the amplification gain by manipulating an amplitude of a digital signal that is converted from the analog signal. Other embodiments are also described.
Claims15
A method for gain control in a communications device, the method comprising:
- detecting a change in an amplification gain that is applied to an analog signal in the communications device;
- and
- compensating for the change in the amplification gain by manipulating an amplitude of a digital signal that is converted from the analog signal.
A communications device, the communications device comprising:
- a gain compensation timing unit configured to detect a change in an amplification gain that is applied to an analog signal in the communications device;
- and
- a signal amplitude control unit configured to compensate for the change in the amplification gain by manipulating an amplitude of a digital signal that is converted from the analog signal.
