Abstract
A radio frequency signal can be received in an intermediate frequency mode suitable for radio wave reception conditions. An oscillator has a variable oscillation frequency. A quadrature demodulator includes a frequency mixer and generates an intermediate frequency signal having an intermediate frequency lower than the frequency of the radio frequency signal. An ADC receives the intermediate frequency signal passed through an analog filter and converts the received intermediate frequency signal to a digital signal. A channel selection signal processing section generates a demodulated signal from the intermediate frequency signal converted to the digital signal. A mode control section switches the operating mode of the quadrature demodulator between a zero intermediate frequency mode and a low intermediate frequency mode in accordance with the radio wave reception conditions.
