Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A signal receiving device and signal receiving method to pass a desired frequency component of an intermediate frequency signal by using an IF filter without increasing a chip area. The signal receiving device comprises: a mixer to mix a received frequency signal with a local oscillation frequency signal to generate an intermediate frequency signal; an IF filter to pass a predetermined frequency component of the intermediate frequency signal; a controlling part which adjusts, according to a frequency band of the intermediate frequency signal, the frequency band of the IF filter, and adjust, according to a center frequency set in the IF filter that fluctuates with the adjustment, a center frequency of the intermediate frequency signal to be inputted in the IF filter; and a demodulating part to demodulate a frequency component of the intermediate frequency signal outputted after passing through the IF filter.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A frequency signal receiving device comprising: a mixer generating an intermediate frequency which has a predetermined center frequency by mixing a received frequency signal with a local oscillation frequency signal generated by a local oscillator, and outputting the intermediate frequency signal; an IF filter comprising a high-pass filter and a low-pass filter connected in series to each other each of which includes a resistance and condenser block that i…
