Claim Text:
1. A receiver apparatus including multiple RF-filters and RF-attenuators, each said RF-attenuator having a gain that is adjustable, one for each of multiple frequency bands, each RF-attenuator is provided with a respective power splitter that connects the RF-attenuator to an average power detector, which is configured to monitor an average power of each frequency band, where all frequency bands share a common antenna apparatus, at least one common low noise amplifier (LNA) and a common mixer apparatus configured to mix all frequency bands into a common analog signal, and where a peak power monitor apparatus is configured to monitor the peak power of the common analog signal, wherein, the receiver apparatus includes: a digitizer apparatus configured to control the gain of each RF-attenuator based on the monitored average power of each band from the average power detector and a detected peak power of the common analog signal from the peak power monitor apparatus.
