Abstract
A receiving circuit includes: an antenna for receiving signal waves of two different frequency hands; a first receiving circuit for receiving a first receiving signal having a frequency; a second receiving circuit for receiving a second receiving signal having another frequency; a switch element for switching a signal path from the antenna to either one of the first receiving circuit and the second receiving circuit; a first diode; a second diode; and reverse bias voltage applying elements, each connected in parallel with one of the first diode and the second diode. The switch element is connected to a direct current power supply, and the switch element controls the connection of the direct current power supply such that the first diode and the second diode are biased in the forward direction when the first receiving signal is received and the first diode and the second diode are biased in the reverse direction when the second receiving signal is received.
