Abstract
A reception circuit is provided which can detect the beginning of data regardless of a preamble or a unique word contained or not in a received signal and regardless of coding systems for received signals. The reception circuit includes a correlation operation portion that performs a correlation operation to generate a correlation signal while sliding one symbol of reference signal in relation to a received signal. The reference signal goes to a high level during a first half symbol period and goes to a low level during a second half symbol period. The reception circuit further includes: a delay portion that outputs a delay signal by delaying the received signal for a half symbol period in relation to the received signal; and a data beginning timing detection portion that detects a beginning peak timing for the correlation signal as a beginning timing of data contained in the delay signal.
