Abstract
A noise reducing circuit for reducing various noise in the output of a receiver. A noise attenuating circuit receives a demodulated signal and attenuates the noise in the demodulated signal in accordance with a control signal supplied thereto. A signal strength detecting circuit outputs a field intensity signal indicative of a strength of a radio wave signal inputted to the receiver. An output noise level detecting circuit outputs a noise level signal indicative of a noise level in the demodulated signal after the noise is attenuated. A fuzzy inferring circuit performs fuzzy inference in accordance with fuzzy production rules given by membership functions for the field intensity signal and the noise level signal, respectively so as to output an inference output. A control signal generating circuit produces the control signal on the basis of the inference output to control the noise attenuating circuit.
