Patent ID: 7266167

Claim:
A reception apparatus comprising: a plurality of antennas for receiving respective reception signals formed from modulation signals transmitted in an identical frequency band; a field electric intensity estimation unit for estimating a reception field electric intensity of each of the reception signals received by the respective antennas, and outputting a reception received signal strength intensity estimation signal of the reception signals; a transmission path fluctuation estimation unit for outputting a respective transmission path fluctuation estimation signal for each of the antennas, the transmission path fluctuation estimation signal estimating a transmission path fluctuation of respective channels included in each of the respective reception signals; a phase difference estimation unit for outputting a phase difference signal representing a phase difference between each of the antennas for the respective channels, based on the respective transmission path fluctuation estimation signal for each of the antennas; and a signal selector for selecting a plurality of reception quadrate baseband signals from the reception signals and selecting the corresponding transmission path fluctuation estimation signals from the reception signals, for isolating signals of the respective channels, based on the plurality of reception quadrate baseband signals of the respective antennas, the transmission path fluctuation estimation signals for the respective antennas, the reception received signal strength intensity estimation signal and the phase difference signal.
