Abstract

A digital demodulator which demodulates an analog signal obtained through a quadrature amplitude modulation to produce a digital demodulated signal includes a converter to convert the analog signal into a digital signal and a signal processor to quadrature-demodulating the digital signal from the converter. Assuming that the analog signal has a carrier frequency of f.sub.IF and the signal conversion is accomplished with the sampling frequency fs, the demodulator is set to satisfy fs=4.multidot.f.sub.IF /(2n+1), where n denotes a positive integer. The signal processing section conducts the quadrature demodulation according to a quadrature local oscillation signal having a frequency fc satisfying fc=fs/4.
