Patent ID: 7706471

Claim:
A receiving apparatus, comprising: a receiver which receives multicarrier signals in which a known signal is assigned to at least one carrier, respectively, by a plurality of antennas; a correction unit which corrects, carrier by carrier, phases of the multicarrier signals received respectively by the plurality of antennas in said receiver; a processing unit which performs adaptive array processing on the multicarrier signals corrected by said correction unit, for each carrier; and a derivation unit which derives, per carrier, a phase for correction to be used for said correction unit, based on error in the multicarrier signals which have undergone the adaptive array processing in said processing unit, wherein said derivation unit derives the phase for correction by updating a frequency for correction about a carrier to which the known signal is assigned, based on error in said carrier, and derives the phase for correction about a carrier to which the known signal is not assigned, based on error in said carrier and the phase for correction in the carrier to which the known signal is assigned.
