Abstract

A multi-level signal demodulation apparatus includes an A/D converter for converting an input analog signal of which the amplitude is modulated by a multi-level to a digital signal, a memory for storing the digital signal, a threshold generator for calculating plural threshold levels in accordance with the digital signal which is stored in the memory, and a demodulator for demodulating the digital signal which is obtained by the A/D converter in accordance with the plural threshold levels to a signal according to a level of the digital signal.
