Abstract
A method for adjusting automatic gain control (AGC) of a radio receiver begins when a primary AGC module establishes an AGC setting for the radio receiver to produce a primary AGC setting. The method continues when a supervisory AGC module compares performance of the radio receiver utilizing the primary AGC setting with a plurality of performance thresholds. The method continues with the supervisory AGC module adjusting the primary AGC setting to produce adjusted AGC setting when the performance of the radio receiver utilizing the primary AGC setting compares unfavorable with a first performance threshold of the plurality of performance thresholds. The method continues with the supervisory AGC module overwriting the primary AGC setting with alternative AGC setting when the performance of the radio receiver utilizing the primary AGC setting compares unfavorable with a second performance threshold of the plurality of performance thresholds.
