Patent ID: 8554251

Claim:
A method for processing signals, comprising: switching a transceiver of a mobile device to an on state; receiving a first paging signal via the transceiver during a first cycle; storing the received first paging signal in a memory of the mobile device; switching the transceiver to an off state; processing the stored first paging signal while the transceiver is in the off state, wherein the processing comprises generating a second paging signal based on an automatic gain control (AGC) processing of the first paging signal and overwriting at least part of the stored first paging signal with at least part of the second paging signal in the memory, and wherein the AGC processing comprises computing a low noise amplifier (LNA) gain estimate from the first paging signal; and applying the LNA gain estimate computed from the first paging signal during the first cycle to a subsequent paging signal during a subsequent cycle.
