ABSTRACT:
Automatic gain control circuitry in a modem receiver, featuring a digitally controlled gain element for imposing on the received modulated carrier signal a gain corresponding to gain control signals g received from a microprocessor, an analog-to-digital converter to provide the microprocessor with digital samples of the received modulated carrier signal, and a gain control in the microprocessor for comparing an estimate of the average level of the samples with a desired level, and generating the control signals g based on the result of the comparison.
