Abstract
A communication system which includes a receiving section having a frequency convertor for converting a received signal into an intermediate frequency signal by mixing with a local oscillation signal, and a demodulator for demodulating the received signal converted into the intermediate frequency signal, a transmission section for modulating a transmission signal received thereby, to transmit the so modulated signal, and an input/output section for receiving the demodulated signal from the receiving section and outputting it externally and receiving the transmission signal externally and outputting it to the transmission section. The receiving section includes a local oscillator for generating the local oscillation signal, reference frequency generator for generating a reference signal, calibration signal generator for generating a calibration signal having a predetermined frequency based upon the reference signal, to input the calibration signal to the frequency converter, counter for counting the frequency of the intermediate frequency signal, and corrector for detecting a frequency error based upon the counted value of the intermediate frequency signal. The frequency converter c…
