Phase detection circuit and receiver
A quadrant deciding section decides the quadrant to which a received signal belongs based on a baseband signal. A rotation projector rotates the received signal and projects the rotated signal to a straight line that intersects orthogonally at the origin with a straight line that bisects the decided quadrant. An integrator integrates the signal after the projection. A one-bit quantizer quantizes the integration result by deciding the sign of the integration result. A delay circuit delays the quantized signal by a predetermined time. An adder adds the decision result and the quantized signal modulo the phase 2π. A low-pass filter sequentially latches phase values after the addition with internal shift registers, converts the phase value to a prescribed specific value when the phase values that cross over 2π exist in the whole data within the registers, and averages the phase values.
