Claim:
1. A method of adjusting signal processing in a receiver based on signal strength, the method comprising: determining a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) level; determining a gain setting of an amplifier of the receiver, wherein at least one of i) defining an AGC value to be high when the gain setting of the amplifier is above the first threshold or ii defining the AGC value to be low when the gain setting of the amplifier is below the first threshold; adjusting a second threshold responsive to the gain setting of the amplifier; at least one of i) defining an RSSI value to be high when the RSSI level is above the second threshold or ii) defining the RSSI value to be low when the RSSI level is below the second threshold; and adjusting, based on the RSSI value and the AGC value, a processing rate of at least one of i) an analog-to-digital converter or ii) a digital filter.
