Abstract
A PSK signal which is subject to frequency fluctuation and noise is demodulated by using a regenerated carrier signal and a regenerated clock signal which are derived from the output of bandpass filters (19, 24) for increasing the carrier to noise ratio C/N. The center frequency of bandpass filter is determined by converting the received time domain signal to a frequency domain signal by using a FFT (fast Fourier transform) circuit, and estimating the center frequency on the frequency spectrum based on the fact that the modulated signal component exists only on a portion which has a high level on the frequency spectrum.
