Abstract

A multiplier multiplies a baseband signal with a scramble code generated by a CPICH scramble code generator and an integrator integrates the result of the multiplication. A symbol selection control unit controls the integrator such that the integrator integrates each of two successive slots in which combinations of the symbols transmitted from two antennas of a base station are the same, in accordance with the information about the synchronous positions of the slots and frames. The result of the integration is delayed by a 1-symbol delay unit and then a code of a complex component is inverted by a complex conjugate unit. A multiplier multiplies the outputs of the integrator and complex conjugate unit, which are shaped in a complex number, to obtain an amount of phase rotation between the successive symbols, i.e. a frequency error.
