Abstract
Embodiments of this disclosure may include a receiver with a reconfigurable processing path for different signal conditions. Such a receiver may reconfigure between a mixer-first configuration and an amplifier-first configuration. In the mixer-first configuration, an RF input signal is not passed through an LNA for amplification before processing the RF input signal for downconversion to baseband and eventual extraction of the information in the signal. In the amplifier-first configuration, an RF input signal is passed through an LNA for amplification before processing the RF input signal for downconversion to baseband and eventual extraction of the information in the signal. Reconfiguring the receiver between mixer-first and amplifier-first configurations may be performed based on detection of jammer signals and/or measurement of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
