    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide techniques for performing an automatic gain control (AGC) at a wireless receiver. SOLUTION: The total gain for a wireless receiver is achieved with discrete gain steps for analog circuitry and continuous gain for a digital variable gain amplifier (DVGA) 230. An AGC loop is updated based on power measurements for an output signal from the DVGA. A first gain for the analog circuitry is selected from multiple discrete gain values based on the AGC loop to maintain the average power of a baseband signal within a predetermined range at an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 220 input. A second gain for the DVGA is selected based on the AGC loop to maintain the average power of the output signal at a reference power level. The first gain is switched in a manner to avoid saturation of the ADC caused by the baseband signal and to provide switching hysteresis. The AGC may be performed in log domain and with multiple modes. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

    Abstract: A wireless communication method is disclosed, comprising measuring a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) for a current radio frequency (RF); determining whether the measured RSSI is above a predetermined threshold value; monitoring neighboring RFs; and detecting the presence of the FLO (forward link only) signal in the neighboring RFs without detecting a time-division multiplexed pliot (TDM1). Also disclosed is a method of monitoring radio frequencies (RFs) at an access terminal in a wireless communication environment to detect a FLO (Forward link only) signal without detecting a time-division multiplexed pliot (TDM1), the method comprising detecting an energy level for a wide-area identity (WID) channel associated with a received signal; comparing the energy level for the WID channel with a predetermined threshold; and detecting a presence of the FLO signal based upon the comparison.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for RF channel switching in a multi-frequency network. In an aspect, a method includes identifying a multiplex set that comprises one or more content flows, wherein the multiplex set is one of a vertical multiplex (VM) set and a unified multiplex (UM) set, generating an overhead message that associates one or more RF carrier frequencies with the one or more content flows, and transmitting the overhead message over the multi-frequency network. An apparatus includes input logic configured to receive an overhead message that associates one or more content flows with one or more RF carrier frequencies, and processing logic configured to detect a channel switch event that identifies a selected content flow, determine a selected RF carrier frequency associated with the selected content flow based on the overhead message, and switch to the selected RF carrier frequency to receive the selected content flow.
