  • Patent number: 9621206
    Abstract: An RF receiver comprising: an RF signal processing unit for receiving an RF signal, wherein the RF signal processing unit comprises a dynamically reconfigurable RF filter for filtering the RF signal; an analog-to-digital converter for converting the filtered RF signal to a digital signal; and a digital signal processing unit for processing the digital signal to provide at least one channel; wherein the digital signal processing unit is adapted to adjust a respective transfer function of at least one said channel when the RF filter is reconfigured, to at least partially compensate a change in the transfer function of the RF filter.
