Abstract:
1. A receiver comprising: a receiving unit receiving a signal in which a Walsh code including a plurality of chips respectively generated from a plurality of phase indicating signals represents a symbol; a phase correction unit correcting a phase of the received signal to approach a selected one of phases at which the Walsh codes including the plurality of chips are assigned; a Walsh transform unit subjecting the corrected signal to Walsh transform in units of symbols so as to generate a plurality of correlations having phase components; an approximation unit computing approximated values indicating a magnitude of the plurality of correlations generated such that the closer to the phase at which the Walsh code is assigned, the larger the approximated value; and a selection unit selecting a single correlation by referring to the approximated values indicating the magnitude of the plurality of correlations and outputting a plurality of phase indicating signals corresponding to the selected correlation.
