Abstract
A differential detecting apparatus includes samplers 1 and 2, differential detection calculating unit 3, and two post-detection filters 4 and 5. Differential detection calculating unit 3 performs a differential detection with time-division multiplexing on data output from these samplers and alternately outputs a data sequence of a part of cosine component of the phase difference of the modulated signal and a data sequence of the rest of the cosine component. Differential detection calculating unit 3 also alternately outputs a data sequence of a part of sine component of the phase difference and a data sequence of the rest of the sine component. Each of post-detection filters 4 and 5 includes linear interpolating filter 35 and integral filter 36 which are connected in series. The linear interpolating filter 35 obtains a moving average from successive three pieces of input data weighted by 1:2:1 and the integral filter 36 obtains an integral value from successive k pieces of input data.
