The on-off keying (OOK) receiver has a discontinuous automatic gain control (AGC) that sets the gain at the start of each frame and locks the gain setting for the remainder of that frame, preventing the OOK data from causing instability in the AGC loop. The AGC controller initializes the gain settings of the low-noise amplifier (LNA), low-pass filter (LPF), and programmable gain amplifier (PGA) to maximum values. The LNA, LPF, and PGA are in series and provide an input signal to the rectifier, which produces a voltage output to the 1 / 0 data decision circuit. The level detector compares the voltage output with two thresholds. When either threshold is exceeded, the AGC controller steps down the gain setting until the voltage output is between the two thresholds, at which point the gain setting is locked for the remainder of the current frame. When a long string of 0 data is detected between frames, the frame detector resets the AGC controller between frames. The LNA gain is reduced last.
