Multiple signal receiving

1. A receiver for use in a software defined radio (SDR) multichannel receiver configured to receive signals from multiple transmitters, the receiver comprising:

a first channel circuit of N channel circuits, comprising:

a band pass (BP) filter that isolates a first frequency bandwidth carrying a signal originating from a first transmitter; and

a gain control (GC) feedback circuit configured to adjust a signal provided by the BP filter with respect to a reference voltage; and

a second channel circuit of the N channel circuits comprising a second GC feedback circuit configured to adjust a signal provided by a second BP filter with respect to the reference voltage, wherein the second BP filter isolates a second frequency bandwidth different from the first frequency bandwidth carrying a second signal originating from a second transmitter;

an N-way splitter coupled to the BP filter and the second BP filter, the N-way splitter providing an input signal to both of the BP filter and the second BP filter; and

a multiplexer connected to the GC feedback circuit and the second GC feedback circuit, the multiplexer combining an output from each of the GC feedback circuit and the second GC feedback circuit to provide an output signal.

2. The receiver of claim 1 , further comprising:

a low-noise amplifier (LNA) coupled to the N-way splitter.

3. The receiver of claim 2 , further comprising an analog-to-digital converter coupled to the multiplexer.

4. The receiver of claim 1 wherein the GC feedback circuit comprises:

a variable gain amplifier (VGA);

a detector coupled to the VGA; and

a summer coupled to the detector and the VGA.

5. The receiver of claim 4 wherein the GC feedback circuit comprises a demodulator coupled to the VGA.

6. The receiver of claim 5 , further comprising an N-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to the demodulator.

7. The receiver of claim 1 wherein the first channel comprises:

a mixer coupled to the BP filter; and

an intermediate frequency (IF) BP filter coupled to the mixer and the GC feedback circuit.

8. The receiver of claim 1 wherein the BP filter comprises a BP filter isolating frequencies that are no greater than about ±0.03125% from a center frequency.

9. The receiver of claim 8 wherein the BP filter comprises a miniaturized quartz nanoresonator filter.

10. The receiver of claim 8 wherein the BP filter comprises at least one of a quartz crystal filter, a ceramic filter, a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter, a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) resonator filter or a thin-film resonator filter.
