Abstract

A transmission part produces a copy of a given narrow-band signal so as to obtain a number of same signals according to predetermined orthogonal sequence, and performs respective phase rotations on the thus-obtained signals according to the present invention orthogonal sequence. A reception part performs reverse phase rotation on the reception signals according to the predetermined orthogonal sequence, and then performs mutual addition thereon so as to restore the narrow-band signal.
