A radio frequency (RF) receiver utilizing dynamic power management for
administration of power consumption. The RF receiver includes an RF
antenna, an RF full band filter, an RF amplifier, an RF sub-band filter,
a first local oscillator, an RF mixer, a first IF amplifier, an IF wide
band filter, a second local oscillator, an IF mixer, two secondary IF
amplifiers, an IF narrow band filter, a digital signal processing
subsystem, three power sensors, and a control logic subsystem. Based on
its location in the system, each power sensor has a unique threshold
setting that is set just below a total RF power level where desired
signal degradation might occur. The control logic subsystem utilizes
outputs of the power sensors to detect a total RF power present due to
interfering signals plus a desired signal within an entire bandwidth
present at each stage and dynamically manages power by adjusting bias of
each stage accordingly via its bias control outputs.
