Patent ID: 8644212

Claim:
A device for automatically controlling a RF gain for a receiver of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) terminal, comprising: one or more processors, configured to execute a process comprising: adjusting the RF gain for subframe j, where 0<=j<=9, in a radio frame according to an average peak signal power of subframe j in previous radio frames when the terminal is lack of information in downlink timing and in uplink/downlink configuration; computing a first average signal power in one or more downlink subframes as received from at least one base station and adjusting the RF gain according to the first average signal power, when the terminal has information in downlink timing but is lack of information in uplink/downlink configuration; and computing a second average signal power in one or more downlink subframes as received from at least one base station and adjusting the RF gain according to the second average signal power, when the terminal has information in downlink timing and in uplink/downlink configuration.
