ABSTRACT:
A wireless communication apparatus includes an antenna receiving a radio signal, a variable gain amplifier amplifying the received signal using a variable gain, an analog-to-digital converter converting the amplified signal into a digital signal, a gain setting unit periodically updating the gain of the variable gain amplifier in accordance with an output from the analog-to-digital converter, and an operating mode selection unit selecting one of a plurality of operating modes characterized by different gain updating periods in accordance with the output from the analog-to-digital converter, the selected operating mode being set in the gain setting unit. With this construction, the precision in conversion by the analog-to-digital converter is maintained at a proper level when an environment for signal reception varies.
