Abstract: Ringing of a signal after passing through a low pass filter in an LINC type linear amplifier is remedied. A linear amplifying device includes the linear amplifier including the low pass filter for removing high-frequency components; and an origin avoiding circuit which receives an original input signal and is provided upstream of the linear amplifier. If the original input signal is sampled in the vicinity of an origin, the origin avoiding circuit modifies a sampled value so at to replace the sampled value with a fixed value, and supplies the modified input signal to the linear amplifier.

Abstract: Provided is an adaptive equalization processing circuit with which an adaptive equalization process converges in a stable manner without reducing the transmission efficiency. This adaptive equalization processing circuit is characterized by being equipped with: a demodulation means that demodulates a received signal, and generates and outputs a training signal; an adaptive equalization processing means that uses a tap coefficient (generated using the received signal or the training signal) to perform an adaptive equalization process for removing waveform distortion in the received signal, and then outputs an equalization output signal; and a selection means that selects the training signal when the adaptive equalization processing means is in a non-convergent state, and inputs the training signal to the adaptive equalization processing means.
