Abstract: A signal processing method and apparatus reducing distortion using divided signals differing in only amplitude by weighting an input signal by first weights ki (i=1 to 4) to obtain divided signals, performing the same signal processing f(x) on the divided signals, weighting the signal processed divided signals by second weights l1 (i=1 to 4), and adding the divided signals Vout1 to Vout4 weighted by the second weights. The first weights are k1=t, k2=?t, k3=1, k4=?1, while the second weights are l1=?1, l2=1, l3=t3, l4=?t3. Here, t=b/a (where a and b are different positive integers).

Abstract: An input signal (Vin) is divided into n (?3) number of divided signals which are weighted by first weights (ki). The weighted divided signals are processed by n number of signal processing means 1 to n performing the same signal processing. The processed divided signals are weighted by second weights (li) and added to obtain an output signal (Vout). By selecting the first weights (ki) and the second weights (li), it is possible to eliminate noise or eliminate distortion.

Abstract: When an input signal to be amplified is very small and a large blocking signal having a high frequency is included in an input, it is necessary for a filter for mobile communication for removing thereof that a common-mode signal rejection ratio is large. Further, even in the case of an amplifier having a high gain, it is preferable that the common-mode rejection ratio is large in order to avoid saturation of the amplifier by noise. A common-mode rejecting characteristic is added to an input stage by making transconductance circuits of an input of an integrating circuit proposed by Nauta differential circuits and connecting thereof in cross connection. Thereby, a filter as well as an amplifier improving the common-mode rejection ratio of a total, are realized by being applied to a CMOS process or a BiCMOS process.
