  • Publication number: 20070110193
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present subject matter includes a method of receiving an input signal. The method, in various embodiments, includes detecting a peak of the input signal and detecting an envelope of the input signal. In various embodiments, the peak and envelope are used to identify out-of-band blocking signals and to adjust gain control. The method also includes comparing the peak to a first threshold Tp and comparing the envelope to a second threshold Te. In the method, if the peak is above the first threshold and the envelope is below the second threshold, then ignoring the input signal. If the envelope is above the second threshold, the method includes applying automatic gain control to decode information encoded in the input signal.

  • Publication number: 20060183420
    Abstract: A wireless distribution system includes a number of remote units distributed in a coverage area to receive wireless signals and to provide the signals through the distribution system to input ports of an expansion unit where the signals are combined, detectors operatively connected to one or more of the plurality of input ports to determine the presence of information carrying signals at the input ports, a number of selection circuits to select signals in which information has been detected, and a node to combine the selected signals.
