Patent ID: 6999525

Claim:
A reception integrated circuit for receiving a multiplexed signal in which a first ensemble having signals of a first plurality of programs and a second ensemble having signals of a second plurality of programs are frequency-multiplexed and transmitted and for extracting from the multiplexed received signal one of the signals within the signals of said first plurality of programs and the signals of said second plurality of programs, said reception integrated circuit comprising: a high-frequency amplifier for amplifying said received signal; a circuit for forming first and second local oscillation signals having frequencies at a center frequency between said first ensemble and said second ensemble and having phases that differ by 90° from each other; a first mixer circuit for frequency-converting the received signal into a first intermediate frequency signal in accordance with said first local oscillation signal; a second mixer circuit for frequency-converting the received signal amplified by said high-frequency amplifier into a second intermediate frequency signal in accordance with said second local oscillation signal; a first phase-shift circuit to which said first intermediate frequency signal is supplied; a second phase-shift circuit to which said second intermediate frequency signal is supplied, in which an amount of phase shift in said second phase-shift circuit differs by 90° from that an amount of phase shift of said first phase-shift circuit; an addition/subtraction circuit for switchably performing one of addition and subtraction between the output signal of said first phase-shift circuit and the output signal of said second phase-shift circuit; an intermediate frequency filter to which an output signal of the addition/subtraction circuit is supplied; and a demodulation circuit to which an output signal of the intermediate frequency filter is supplied, wherein, by switching said addition/subtraction circuit to perform addition or subtraction, the signals of said first plurality of programs or the signals of said second plurality of programs are selectively extracted from said demodulation circuit.
