Abstract
Abstract A quadrature amplitude modulation wave demodulator which includes a fixed equalizer having a first band-pass filter applied with a quadrature amplitude modulation wave reception signal for outputting an in-phase component with respect to a carrier wave for the reception signal, and a second band-pass filter applied with the reception signal for outputting a quadrature component with respect to the carrier wave for the reception signal. There is provided a vector multiplication section for performing vector multiplication between one vector having outputs of the first and second band-pass filters as two components, and another vector having two reference carrier waves in quadrature to each other as two components.
