Abstract

An OFDM reception device detects a time at which impulse noise occurs in a received OFDM signal, and specifies a start position candidate period that does not have intersymbol interference and is estimated to have a guard interval signal in a symbol. When setting a FFT window of an effective symbol length in a symbol duration of each symbol, if the impulse noise occurrence time is included in the symbol, the OFDM reception device determines a start position of the FFT window within a range of the start position candidate period so as to exclude the impulse noise occurrence time as much as possible.
