Abstract

A radio receiver is selectively operable in a current mode or a voltage mode according to conditions prevailing within a wireless environment. If the signal levels within the wireless environment are relatively low, the radio receiver is operable in current mode. If the signal levels within the wireless environment are relatively high, the radio receiver is operable in voltage mode. The radio receiver is switchable between current and voltage mode of operation via selectively actuable switches that bringing into effect or remove from effect corresponding resistances.
