Abstract
A phase adjustment circuit includes: a local frequency band phase shifter that adjusts a phase of a signal in a local signal frequency band and that outputs the adjusted signal; a frequency-converting mixer that receives the adjusted signal and another signal different from the adjusted signal, and that mixes the adjusted signal with the other signal; and a buffer amplifier that is provided between the local frequency band phase shifter and the frequency-converting mixer, and that is capable of amplifying an input power that is to be input to the frequency-converting mixer so that the input power is up to be in an input power range in which an input-output characteristic of power of the frequency-converting mixer is out of a linear region.
