Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present technology relates to a reception device, a reception method, a program, and a reception system that make it possible for the location of a frequency band that is used for the transmission of a signal of a predetermined standard to be promptly detected. A reception device according to one aspect of the present technology is including: a reception unit that receives an OFDM signal of a predetermined frequency band; a calculation unit that obtains correlation values between signals transmitted using carriers used for the transmission of a known signal, from within the predetermined frequency band; and a detection unit that, on the basis of the correlation values, detects a frequency band used for the transmission of a signal of a predetermined standard and in which transmission of the known signal is continuously carried out in the same carrier.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A reception device comprising: a RF tuner comprising a frequency conversion unit that receives an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) signal of a predetermined frequency band; and a central processing unit (CPU) operable to: obtain a correlation value between a signal transmitted at a predetermined time and a signal transmitted at a time immediately preceding the predetermined time, for all signals transmitted using a same carrier that is…
