Abstract
A radio apparatus includes an antenna (), and a transmission circuit () and a receiving circuit () sharing the antenna. The apparatus connects an output of the transmission circuit to an input of the receiving circuit in calibration for calculating the quantity of phase rotation and/or the quantity of amplitude fluctuation of a signal passing through the transmission and receiving circuits. Then, it connects a reference signal to the input of the receiving circuit for calculating the quantity of phase rotation and/or the quantity of amplitude fluctuation of a signal passing through the receiving circuit. Based on the subtraction of the information, the quantity of phase rotation and/or the quantity of amplitude fluctuation of a signal passing through the transmission circuit is calculated. It calculates a correction value for correcting difference in quantity of phase rotation and/or quantity of amplitude fluctuation between the transmission and receiving circuits on the basis of the information. Thus, the difference in quantity of phase rotation and/or quantity of amplitude fluctuation between the transmission circuit and the receiving circuit can be corrected.
