ABSTRACT:
In general, the disclosure is directed to techniques for combining a high performance receiver and a low power receiver within a wireless communication device (WCD) to reduce power consumption. Upon receiving a signal from a base station, a controller within the WCD detects one or more channel conditions of a radio frequency (RF) environment between the base station and the WCD. The controller selects a high performance receiver to process the received signal when the RF environment is unfavorable and selects a low power receiver to process the received signal when the RF environment is favorable. In this manner, the WCD implements an adaptive receiver that adapts its receiver structure according to RF channel conditions.
