Abstract

The hardware configuration of a baseband block in a radio communication system is reduced in gate size. Modulation/demodulation processing in a baseband block is divided into a plurality of processing units, which are connected to one another by buffer memories. The hardware gate sizes are reduced by performing processing on a plurality of channels by time division multiplexing at a speed higher than the speed at which received signals are written into the buffer memories.
