Abstract

The invention refers to performing an automatic gain control—AGC—with respect to a received signal comprising a plurality of consecutive subframes (S1 S12), comprising identifying subframes that are associated to a first subset of the consecutive subframes (S1, S3, S4, S5, S7. S8, S9, S11, S12), performing a first (10) signal power measurement with respect to the received signal during the first subset of the consecutive subframes, and performing the AGC according to the first signal power measurement. The invention further refers to a user equipment and to a corresponding computer program.
