Reception device
A reception device includes two antennas 1 - 1, 1 - 2 that are in an inverse correlation, a switching unit 4 which switches the signal that is to be processed among signals received by the two antennas 1 - 1, 1 - 2 , and an adaptive equalizer 6 which uses equalization coefficients to perform equalizing processing on the signal considered by the switching unit 4 to be the signal to be processed, and an equalization coefficient altering unit 7 which alters the equalization coefficients used by the adaptive equalizer 6 synchronously with the timing of switching performed by the switching unit 4 . In the reception device can reduce the required time for reconvergence of equalization coefficients stemming from reception system switching in selection diversity using an inverse correlation antenna.
1. A reception device comprising:
two antennas that are in an inverse correlation;
a switching unit configured to switch the signal that is to be processed among signals received by the two antennas;
an adaptive equalizer using equalization coefficients to perform equalizing processing on the signal considered by the switching unit to be the signal to be processed; and
an equalization coefficient altering unit configured to alter the equalization coefficients used by the adaptive equalizer synchronously with the timing of switching performed by the switching unit,
wherein the equalization coefficient altering unit determines altered equalization coefficients based on equalization coefficients at the timing of switching performed by the switching unit.
2. The reception device of claim 1 , wherein the equalization coefficient altering unit determines, as the altered equalization coefficients, complex conjugates of the equalization coefficients at the timing of switching performed by the switching unit.
3. The reception device of claim 1 , wherein the equalization coefficient altering unit determines, as the altered equalization coefficients, equalization coefficients obtained by setting imaginary numbers of the equalization coefficients at the timing of switching performed by the switching unit to 0 without changing real numbers of the equalization coefficients.
4. The reception device of claim 1 , wherein the equalization coefficient altering unit uses preset values as altered equalization coefficients.
