Abstract

In one example, a method includes: at a beginning of a packet communication, setting a maximum gain setting for a plurality of gain components of a receiver; and during a preamble portion of the packet communication, reducing a gain setting for one or more of the plurality of gain components in response to at least one of a first signal output by a first component of the receiver being greater than a first threshold and a second signal output by a second component of the receiver being greater than a second threshold.
