Abstract
A signal receiver may comprise a first sampling circuitry that is operable to sample in a first level at a particular main sampling rate; a second sampling circuitry that is operable to sample in a second level, an output of the first sampling circuitry, at a second sampling rate that is reduced compared to the main sampling rate; a third sampling circuitry that is operable to sample in a third level, one or more outputs of the second sampling circuitry, at a third sampling rate that is reduced compared to the second sampling rate; and an analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) circuitry for applying analog-to-digital conversion to one or more outputs of the third sampling circuitry.
