Abstract

A receiver assembly for the wireless reception of data that are modulated onto a carrier signal includes an analog receiver, an evaluating device and a control device. The control device controls the receiver by means of sampling pulses such that the receiver is activated during the sampling pulses and is ready to receive transmission signals and is deactivated during the sampling pauses. The evaluating device generates a data bit sequence from the received signals that are supplied by the receiver during the sampling pulses. The control device is further designed to actuate the receiver between phases having differing sampling frequency ranges in dependence on at least one predefined switching criterion.
