Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some cases, a device may perform a first analog to digital conversion (ADC) to generate a first set of samples of a wireless signal, and may attenuate the signal according to a dynamic range. The device may then perform a second ADC on the attenuated signal to generate a second set of samples, amplify the second set of samples, output whichever set of samples is greater. In some other cases, the second ADC may determine to attenuate the wireless signal based on an input power, amplify the signal, and output the amplified samples. In some other cases, the wireless device may determine an estimated input power of the wireless signal at a number of antenna elements. The device may then determine an adjustment to gain states of low-noise amplifiers (LNA) associated with each of the number of antenna elements.
