Abstract
Disclosed herein is a reception apparatus including: an acquisition section configured to acquire an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signal composed resultingly of signals transmitted by the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing method from a plurality of transmission apparatuses; a correction value calculation block configured to calculate a correction value for correcting a drift amount of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signal using the phase of either a first pilot signal or a second pilot signal extracted from the acquired orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signal, the first pilot signal being obtained from pilot signals which are in phase with one another coming from the plurality of transmission apparatuses, the second pilot signal being acquired from pilot signals which are out of phase with one another coming from the plurality of transmission apparatuses; and a correction block configured to correct the drift amount of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signal in accordance with the calculated correction value.
