Abstract

A method () and apparatus () are provided in a receiver for applying a variable gain to a received signal including a transmitted codeword in accordance with an Ultra Wideband (UWB) protocol. A first signal is generated and input to a selectable gain stage including a series of selectable 0 dB and 9 dB gain elements (-). The first signal includes the received signal mixed with a local oscillator signal modified according to a reference codeword. A gain value is selected from the selectable gain stage to amplify the first signal and form a second signal. An output signal is generated by combining the second signal and the modified local oscillator signal.
