ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling gain of an amplifier includes amplifying one or more received signals to produce one or more amplified signals. The method also includes generating a plurality of down converted signals using the one or more amplified signals. The method further includes amplifying the plurality of down converted signals based on a gain control signal. In addition, the method includes varying a time constant of the gain control signal based on a time derivative parameter associated with the plurality of down converted signals.
