Abstract: Until when a desired signal is received in a reception mode, a level comparator extracts a portion of a frequency-domain signal output from a Fourier transformer, the portion matching with the frequency of the desired signal, and, when the reception level of the extracted portion matching with the frequency of the desired signal is higher than a predetermined threshold value, determines that an interference signal exists. An LO frequency controller sets the frequency of a local signal (LO) based on the determination result in the level comparator such that the frequency of intermodulation distortion caused by the interference signal becomes an intermediate frequency of the frequency band of the desired signal. When it is determined that the interference signal exists, an RX controller changes gain settings of a low-noise amplifier circuit and gain settings of a variable gain amplifier circuit and changes the cutoff frequency of a filter circuit.
