Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for gain control during communications. A first electronic device may communicated data to a second electronic device; may monitor conditions and/or parameters affecting estimated reception performance at the second electronic device; and may communicated to the second electronic device, via a connection separate from and different than a connection used in communicating the data, information relating to the monitored conditions, to enable adjusting functions relating to reception of the data at the second electronic device. Based on the received information, at least one reception related function in the second electronic device may be controlled. The controlling may include determining, based on the received information, adjustments to the at least one reception related function or to a related parameter. The at least one reception related function may include applying gain to at least a portion of signals received by the second electronic device.
