Abstract
A transmitting side periodically inserts a known signal consisting of successive N symbols into an information signal consisting of (N −N ) symbols and transmits the N symbol signal. The receiving side receives the N symbol signal, and automatically controls a frequency by estimating a frequency deviation from the incoming signal. More specifically, the receiving side outputs I and Q-channel analog baseband signals from the received incoming signal as well as from a sinusoidal signal outputted from an oscillator, and converts the analog baseband signals to the digital baseband signals. Then a phase difference for one symbol cycle is estimated from the digital baseband signals, integration processing is executed by iterative addition of the estimated values, and the frequency deviation is eliminated from the digital baseband signals using a result of the processing for integration.
