    摘要: A method and apparatus for Automatic Gain Control (AGC) that provides an output signal having a smooth gain variation for any input signal. The various embodiments assure that the output signal will reach a required output level in a specified attack or decay period. A curvilinear reference gain characteristic is applied to the gain variations. One example uses an exponential curve and sets an initial and final value of the gain law for both attack and decay periods as presets. The various embodiments further compute intermediate gain values of the curvilinear paths that archives the smooth variations is also proposed. Other possible curvilinear characteristics may be used such as, but not limited to, logarithmic, hyperbolic, sinusoidal, etc. that are expressible as exponentials. Intermediate gain values may be determined either by table lookup or by on the fly computation of the curvilinear characteristic.

    摘要: The variable power supply to an amplifier in an electrical circuit is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table responsive to one or more operating conditions of the electrical circuit. The lookup table is indexed by one or more of the operating conditions and the amount of amplification to be applied to an input signal to the amplifier is determined. One embodiment of the invention comprises a television transmitter circuit including a power amplifier circuit capable of amplifying a variable frequency COFDM or 8VSB input signal where the amount of amplification applied to the input signal is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table as a function of the frequency of the input signal.

    摘要: Techniques for achieving linear monotonic output power with piecewise non-linear and/or non-monotonic circuits are described. A coarse gain is selected for a first circuit having non-linear and/or non-monotonic characteristics. A fine gain is selected for a second circuit used to account for output power error due to the coarse gain. First and second look-up tables may store output power versus gain for the first and second circuits, respectively. An output power in the first look-up table may be selected based on the requested output power, and the gain corresponding to the selected output power may be provided as the coarse gain. An output power in the second look-up table may be selected based on the output power error, and the gain corresponding to the selected output power may be provided as the second gain.

    摘要: The invention provides an automatic gain control and antenna selection method used in a receiver of a radio communication system. The received signal power is estimated by digital signal processing after analog-to-digital conversion in the system, in order to adjust the gain of the front end analog signal until the magnitude of the analog signal is adjusted to an optimum range of the digital signal processing. In addition, the ADC is utilized to estimate the signal power as the basis of the antenna selection.
