Adaptive offset adjustment algorithm

An apparatus for compensating for an offset in a communication signal, comprising:

• an amplifier array configured to amplify the communication signal in accordance with a plurality of gain stages to provide an amplified communication signal, each of the plurality of gain stages being coupled to a corresponding summation network from among a plurality of summation networks;
• and
• an adaptive offset adjustment module configured to apply a first possible offset correction value from among a plurality of offset correction values to the plurality of summation networks to determine a first signal metric, to apply a second offset adjustment correction from among the plurality of offset correction values to the plurality of summation networks to determine a second signal metric, and to compare the first signal metric and the second signal metric to determine whether to provide the first possible offset correction value or the second offset correction value as a plurality of offset adjustment corrections to the plurality of summation networks.
