1. A method comprising: allocating, from a plurality of receiver path circuits coupled to one or more receive antennas of a wireless receiver, a first set of receiver path circuits for processing a radio-frequency (RF) signal from the receive antennas into a first receive signal of a first signal class; applying a first gain control signal to each of the allocated receiver path circuits to condition a signal level of the RF signal for the processing thereof into the first receive signal; applying a second gain control signal to a second set of receiver path circuits to condition the signal level of the RF signal for processing thereof into a second receive signal of a second signal class distinct from the first signal class; reallocating the receiver path circuits in response to a determination from either of the first and second receive signals that a corresponding one of the first and second signal classes is a wireless communication signal class associated with a wireless network protocol and the corresponding first and second receive signals is a wireless communication signal; and modifying the first or second gain control signal applied to the reallocated receiver path circuits to optimize the signal level of the RF signal for processing thereof into the communication signal.
