Abstract

In order to shorten delay time in a synchronization circuit in an OFDM demodulator, with respect to a preamble for estimating carrier frequency/channel characteristic, the synchronization circuit does not have a delay circuit and a frequency error compensation signal of a carrier frequency estimating circuit is supplied to a channel distortion estimating circuit connected to an output of an FFT. In the channel distortion estimating circuit, a carrier frequency deviation is compensated.
