ABSTRACT:
An A-rail circuit outputs a control signal AGCOUTA whereas a B-rail circuit outputs a control signal AGCOUTB in an AGC circuit. AGCOUTA controls an AGC amplifier (A) while AGCOUTB controls an AGC amplifier (B). A difference value between a power of an input signal and (an amount of variable adjustment SWEEP+a power reference value AGCR). If an output signal of a loop filter in the A-rail circuit attains AGCARAIL>AGCATOB, AGCARAIL=AGCATOB is fixed, and AGCBRAIL is adjusted based on the difference value. If an output signal of a loop filter in the B-rail circuit attains AGCBRAIL<AGCBTOA, AGCBRAIL=AGCBTOA is fixed, and AGCARAIL is adjusted based on the difference value. A control circuit in the AGC circuit acquires a bit error rate, identifies a value of SWEEP allowing a minimum bit error rate, and fixes the value of SWEEP at the identified value.
