  • Patent number: 8165548
    Abstract: A receiving apparatus includes an analog demodulation unit, a digital demodulation/decoding unit, a delay unit, a reception state detecting unit, first/second processing units, and a mixing processing unit. The analog demodulation unit demodulates a first audio signal. The digital demodulation/decoding unit demodulates and decodes a second audio signal. The delay unit delays at least one of the first and second audio signals, to be outputted as third and fourth audio signals. The reception state detecting unit outputs an analog reception state signal. The first/second audio processing units control at least one of volume and quality of the third/fourth audio signals, to be outputted as fifth and sixth audio signals. The mixing processing unit mixes the fifth and sixth audio signal at a predetermined ratio, outputted according to a reception state of at least one of a broadcast wave of analog broadcasting and the broadcast wave of digital broadcasting.
