Abstract
A noise removing apparatus in an FM receiver includes a high-pass filter (29) receiving an output from an FM detector circuit (11), a gate (15) being interrupted in response to a pulsive noise detected by level-discriminating an output from a variable gain amplifier (35) receiving an output from the high-pass filter (29). Transistors are provided for controlling the gain of the variable gain amplifier (35) according to the magnitude of a terminal voltage of a capacitor which is charged according to an output from a rectifying circuit (43). The noise removing apparatus further includes a voltage generator (51) for generating a voltage proportional to a received electric field strength and a circuit (53) for varying an amount to be charged in the capacitor according to the magnitude of a voltage from the voltage generator (51) for maintaining the gain of the variable gain amplifier (35) large at the time of strong electric field, so that a multipath noise can be effectively removed.
