Abstract
A signal receiver may be configured to determine when signal generation changes affecting signals being received by the signal receiver may cause performance related changes; and to modify its (the signal receiver) configuration to handle the performance related changes. In this regard, the modifying of configuration may comprise determining characteristics of performance related changes, and controlling operations of the signal receiver based on the determined characteristics of the performance related changes. The performance related changes may comprise amplitude glitches, phase glitches, and/or bit or packet errors. The signal generation changes may comprise channel-to-frequency reassignment. Controlling operations of the signal receiver based on determined characteristics of the performance related changes may comprise adjusting such parameters as amplification gain and/or tracking loop bandwidth, and/or determining whether (or not) to ignore bit/packet errors—i.e. not reacquire (e.g., based on determination that tracking loops used in the signal receiver remain locked).
