Abstract
The technology described herein enhances the operation of a wireless repeater system to set an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) timer. In one implementation, the wireless repeater wirelessly receives a receive data signal having a receive energy level. The wireless repeater periodically processes the receive energy level per the AGC timer to calculate an AGC amount. The wireless repeater also applies the AGC amount to the received data signal to generate a transmit data signal, and wirelessly transfers the transmit data signal. The wireless RF repeater determines an energy fluctuation in the receive data signal, and when the energy fluctuation in the receive data signal exceeds a fluctuation threshold, the wireless repeater decreases the AGC timer.
