Method and systems are provided for controlling adjustments of reception functions. Communication links may be setup between a transmitter and a receiver along with sideband control channels. Conditions and/or parameters, affecting estimated performance of reception, via the communication links, at the receiver, may then be monitored at the transmit-side, and information relating to the monitored conditions may then be communicated, via the sideband control channels, to enable adjusting reception related functions at the receiver. The reception related functions comprise analog-to-digital conversion, which may be configured to function in an interleaved manner.
