Abstract

Abstract According to the present invention, a large compensation effect can be obtained in a small operation volume regardless of which one of a distortion due to a frequency selective fading and a distortion due to an interference of adjacent waves is ruling. In the present invention, a principal wave signal and signals of channels adjacent to both sides of said principal wave are taken out, and power of these signals is compared to select either one of the fractional interval equalizer and the linear decision feedback equalizer.
