Abstract: A system (600) and method (500) are presented for mitigating a transient in processing a received signal (710) in a signal path associated with an Ultra Wideband (UWB) receiver. An impending processing event associated with processing the received signal is detected. A processing element (201, 202, 203, 204) capable of generating a transient when activated, is activated prior to the processing event such that the transient is mitigated or cleared when the processing event occurs and the received signal is processed. At least a portion of the processing element is normally deactivated so as to conserve power. The processing event includes one or more of: an acquisition processing event, a lock processing event, and a tracking processing event associated with the received signal in the signal path.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a strongest of a radio signal received on at least two signal paths in an Ultra Wideband (UWB) receiver includes determining a signal metric associated with the radio signal in a first signal path and a second signal path and establishing a candidate for the strongest of the radio signal based on which one of the signal metrics in the first and second signal paths crosses a threshold and based on a rule set. The signal paths are associated with independent clock domains which are synchronized, and the signal metrics are available to the respective signal paths and clock domains. Determining on a non-chosen signal path continues and the threshold is updated. A new candidate is established as the strongest if the signal metric associated with the non-chosen signal path crosses the updated threshold.
