ABSTRACT:
A logarithmic conversion circuit includes a narrow band generating unit consisting of a local oscillator (104) and a mixer (103) for receiving an output of the local oscillator and the input signal and a first band-pass filter (105) connected to the mixer for generating a narrow band signal from a broad band input signal; a selection member (106-7) directly connected to the first band-pass filter for selecting either the input signal or the narrow band signal; first and second LOG amps (108, 111) connected in series to the selection member; and a noise suppression unit connected in parallel between the first and second LOG amps and including a second band-pass filter (109) for transmitting only the broad band input signal and a low-pass filter (110) for transmitting only the narrow band signal.
