ABSTRACT:
An audio broadcast receiving apparatus and an audio broadcast receiving method implemented by the audio broadcast receiving apparatus are disclosed. A tuner simultaneously receives a radio wave in a specific frequency band of the analog audio broadcast and a radio wave of the digital audio broadcast transmitted in parallel with the analog audio broadcast in the specific frequency band. A demodulator retrieves the intended audio information by demodulating the signal received by the tuner. An analog receiving signal bandpass filter selectively passes the receiving signal corresponding to the analog audio broadcast radio wave. An analog receiving signal amplifier outputs an output signal representing an amplified receiving signal that has passed the analog receiving signal bandpass filter to the demodulator, and the gain of the amplifier is controlled in accordance with the level of the same output signal. A digital receiving signal bandpass filter selectively passes the receiving signal corresponding to the digital audio broadcast radio wave. A digital receiving signal amplifier amplifies the receiving signal that has passed through the digital receiving signal bandpass filter with a gain controlled in accordance with the level of the same output signal and outputs the amplified signal to the demodulator.
