Abstract

It is an object to provide a receiving apparatus which is capable of demodulating signals with a very simple arrangement. Receiving apparatushas N reception antennas---N, and reception antennas---N receive signals. Channel coefficient estimatorestimates and outputs channel coefficients from the signals received by respective reception antennas---N. QR decomposeris supplied with a channel matrix having the channel coefficients as its elements, performs QR decomposition on the channel matrix, and outputs a Q matrix and an R matrix. A Qprocessoris supplied with the Q matrix and the received signals, multiplies the received signals by a complex conjugate transposed matrix of the Q matrix, and outputs converted signal z. A transmitted sequence estimatoris supplied with converted signal z and the R matrix and estimates transmitted sequences.
