Abstract
A receiver device is provided with: channel estimation unit which obtains channel estimation values for a frequency domain on the basis of pilot symbols disposed in an OFDM subcarrier; interpolation unit which performs interpolation so that the number of samples of channel estimation values obtained by the channel estimation unit is a power of 2; transformation unit which transforms the channel estimation values interpolated by the interpolation unit into a time domain to obtain a delay profile; and power peak position detection unit which detects a power peak position of the delay profile so as to obtain a propagation delay time. The power peak position detection unit references the signal power of the portion interpolated by the interpolation unit in order to detect a suitable power peak position in the delay profile.
