Abstract
An RSSI detector for determining a received signal strength of a received signal, including a transistor configured to operate in a non-linear mode to generate second order components of the received signal comprising a DC component and an AC component; a filter configured to attenuate the AC component of the generated signal to form a filtered signal; and a determination unit configured to determine the received signal strength of the received signal based on an amplitude of the filtered signal.
