Abstract
An OFDM signal is demodulated to generate a frequency domain signal in each of a plurality of branches. A diversity combining unit combines the demodulated signals respectively obtained in each of the branches. A clock recovery unit recovers the clock for the OFDM signal. A guard correlation unit detects the phase error of the OFDM signal. A decision unit identifies a branch having high reliability. A clock error correction unit generates a correction instruction, in accordance with the average value of the phase errors in the branch having high reliability. The clock recovery unit in each of the branches respectively corrects the error of the clock in accordance with the correction instruction.
