Patent ID: 8165548

Claim:
A receiving apparatus comprising: an analog demodulation unit configured to demodulate a first audio signal from a broadcast wave of analog broadcasting whose frequency is included in a predetermined frequency band; a digital demodulation/decoding unit configured to demodulate and decode a second audio signal from a broadcast wave of digital broadcasting whose frequency is included in the frequency band, the digital broadcasting being the same in contents as the analog broadcasting; a delay unit configured to delay at least one of the first and second audio signals, to be outputted as third and fourth audio signals, respectively; a reception state detecting unit configured to output an analog reception state signal indicating a reception state of the broadcast wave of the analog broadcasting; the first audio processing unit configured to control at least one of volume and quality of the third audio signal, to be outputted as a fifth audio signal, according to the analog reception state signal; the second audio processing unit configured to control at least one of volume and quality of the fourth audio signal, to be outputted as a sixth audio signal, according to the analog reception state signal; and a mixing processing unit configured to mix the fifth audio signal and the sixth audio signal at a predetermined ratio, to be outputted, according to a reception state of at least one of the broadcast wave of the analog broadcasting and the broad cast wave of the digital broadcasting.
