Abstract

A data transmitting apparatus in which in an antenna switching of the data transmitting apparatus, a sudden change of transmission path characteristics is prevented and a state where an automatic equalizing function on the reception side can follow can be held. The apparatus has a processing circuit for gradually switching antennas of the data transmitting apparatus with respect to the time and for continuously switching one antenna from the rated level to the 0 level and for continuously switching the other antenna from the 0 level to the rated level. The apparatus operates so as to always keep the optimum constellation state in which the automatic equalizing process follows.
