Abstract
A receiver having a digital automatic gain control (AGC) circuit is disclosed for use in a cellular communication system, including a Hierarchical Cellular System. The receiver includes a controller which switches between gain control values depending on system operational mode. In this way, the AGC can be optimized for different types of receive processing operations, e.g., traffic reception and measurement of other channels.
