Abstract

A delay quantity estimation apparatus comprises a first correlation value arithmetic unit to calculate a first correlation value as a correlation value between a first input signal and a feedback signal delayed with a first delay value; a second correlation value arithmetic unit to calculate a second correlation value as a correlation value between the first input signal and a feedback signal delayed with a second delay value; and a delay quantity estimation unit to estimate a delay quantity of the feedback signal with respect to the input signal on the basis of the first difference value as a difference between the first correlation value and the second correlation value, wherein the second delay value is a value given by adding a certain value to the first delay value.
