Abstract
There are provided a differential processing unit which performs differential processing for a Mode S transponder transmission signal, an auto correlation arithmetic operation unit which performs an arithmetic operation of a degree of auto correlation between an increasing change rate and decreasing change rate of a power level in the signal which has been subjected to the differential processing, a pulse regeneration unit which regenerates a pulse based on the degree of auto correlation, which has been obtained by the auto correlation arithmetic operation processing, a pulse phase locked loop unit which performs gate processing and phase locked processing for the regenerated pulse, and a pulse decoding unit which decodes the Mode S transponder transmission signal based on the pulse which has been subjected to the gate processing and the phase locked processing.
