Power-efficient intelligent reception
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- scanning at least one communication spectrum available for a desired communication;
categorizing available communication channels from the communication spectrum based on channel state information of the communication channels;
selecting a communication channel from said available communication channels based on said categorizing;
setting complexity of filtering by selecting a length of a digital filter chain based on the channel state information of said selected communication channel; and
setting complexity of channel decoding based on the channel state information, wherein the channel state information comprises one or more quality-based parameters.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, system, apparatus, receiver module, and computer program product which may provide a power-efficient reception. In an example embodiment, at least one spectrum available for a desired communication may be scanned, and available communication channels may be categorized based on at least one determined channel property. A communication channel may be selected from the available communication channels based on the result of the categorization, and complexity of a receiver processing may be set based on the at least one channel property of the selected communication channel. Complexity of the receiver processing may be reduced in light of the property of the selected channel, so that power consumption may be kept low.
