Abstract
A data processing apparatus includes a first correlation operation unit which performs a mutual correlation operation of a first input series and a second input series, a threshold value operation unit which calculates a threshold value based on the first input series, a first comparison unit which compares a first mutual correlation value with the threshold value, a search window setting unit which sets a search window for detecting the second input series to the first input series on the basis of the comparison result, a hard decision unit which performs binarization of the first input series, a second correlation operation unit which performs a mutual correlation operation of a first input hard decision value, and a detection position determining unit which searches for a maximum value of the mutual correlation value within the search window and determines the detection time of the maximum value.
