ABSTRACT:
In a radio-frequency receiver, a received RF signal is converted to an intermediate frequency (IF) signal and band-limited by a first IF filter to a channel bandwidth. The level of the output of the IF filter is detected by a detector and compared with a threshold to produce a first and a second output when the detected level is lower or higher than the threshold, respectively. A switching circuit applies the output of the IF filter to a demodulator via an IF amplifier in response to the first output and directly applies it to the demodulator in response to the second output. To prevent interference from adjacent channels, a second intermediate frequency filter is connected between the band-limiting IF filter and the detector. The second IF filter has a passband corresponding to a center frequency portion of the passband of the band-limiting IF filter.
