ABSTRACT:
Outputs from respective elements of an array antenna21are demodulated, and the demodulated outputs are stored in storage means29. The demodulated outputs are multiplied by tap coefficients of adaptive array antenna, then the multiplied outputs are combined by combining means28, and the combined output is provided via a feed forward filter22to an adaptive equalizer23, wherein it is equalized to obtain a decision symbol. During reception of a training signal the tap coefficients of adaptive array antenna and tap coefficients of the adaptive equalizer23are subjected to convergence processing by tap coefficient calculating means24so that an error signal becomes small, and then tap coefficients of the feed forward filter22and the adaptive equalizer23are subjected to convergence processing by tap coefficient calculating means25so that an error signal becomes small. Thereafter, the convergence processing by the means24and25is repeated, during which a training signal stored in storage means29is used, results of the immediately preceding convergence processing are used as initial values, and it is decided by receiving quality estimating means26whether the error signal has become sufficiently small relative to the received signal power.
