Abstract: A comparator for comparing binary numbers with N bits,
where N>1, in which a plurality (200) of bit-to-bit
comparators supplies a plurality of equality-difference
signals, arranged in order of decreasing significance of
the bits compared, to a matrix of transistors, arranged
in 4 columns (201, 202, 203, 204) of N rows of
transistors arranged in order, so as to control the gates
of the transistors; the matrix, which receives, at the
sources of the transistors of two (203, 204) of the
columns, the signals representative of the bits of one of
the numbers compared and their negated signals, is
interconnected in a manner such as to identify the most
significant difference by a simultaneous logic process,
and to decide, on the basis of the bit signals received,
which of the binary numbers is greater than, or greater
than or equal to the other, presenting the outcome of the
decision at an output (U2) within a very short time and

Abstract: A desired wave power detection section 10 detects
desired wave power from a received signal. On the other
hand, an interference wave power detection section 11
detects interference wave power from the received signal.
Interference wave power before and after in time receives
averaging processing over a long interval in an averaging
section 12, and receives averaging processing over a short
interval in an averaging section 13. A differencing device
124 obtains a difference between an averaged value over
the long interval and an averaged value over the short
interval. A selection section 16 selects the averaged value
of the short interval in the case where the obtained
difference is larger than a prescribed threshold value,
and selects the averaged value of the long interval in
the case where the obtained difference is smaller than
the prescribed threshold value. An SIR calculation section
17 obtains a ratio of the averaged value selected by the
selection section 16 to the desired wave power detected
by the desired wave power detection section 10.
