Abstract

A spread-spectrum communication apparatus includes a receiving antenna, amplifiers, band-pass filters, a threshold filter circuit, a despreader, a base-band demodulation circuit, and other circuit stages. The threshold filter circuit is connected in series before the despreader. The threshold filter circuit has a frequency-band width covering the band width of a spread signal and cuts interference waves at certain levels at each frequency within the frequency band. The threshold filter circuit includes a magnetostatic wave device.
