ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for conserving power in a receiver device are provided. In exemplary embodiments, a receiver device comprises a tuner configured to receive a transmitted signal, at least one analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a digital signal processing hardware comprising a control logic. The exemplary control logic is configured to determine if a symbol within the transmitted signal belongs to an erasure interval, and generate a control signal to configure a receiver device component to conserve power based on the determination.
