Abstract
In a CDMA receiving apparatus, a delay profile using a desired constraint length is generated by a delay profile generating unit from received signal wave-form data recorded on a received signal wave-form buffer unit. Several demodulation paths are selected at peak position of the delay profile by the path search unit. Demodulation symbols which are generated from received signal wave-form data of each demodulation path by the channel demodulating unit are brought into in-phase by an adjustment angle which is obtained by the channel estimating unit. If the reception quality which is measured by the reception quality measuring unit is lower than a predetermined value for a combined demodulation symbol which is combined by a RAKE unit, the combination of said selected demodulation paths or the constraint length is changed to repeat the demodulation operation of the same received signal wave-form data.
