Abstract
An analog signal to be delayed thereby is compressed according to a monotonously increasing, convex compression function and sent to a delay circuit constituted digitally. Data of a digital value stored in a memory is read out after a constant delay time and converted into an analog signal by a D/A converter. The analog signal is expanded according to a reverse function of the compression function to restore it as an echo signal.
