Step S1, setting the current value of spreading factor SF to a demodulation mode different from the previous value, where the current value of spreading factor SF is one of N preset spreading factor SF values, the setting mode is a cycle setting, and each cycle includes the N preset spreading factor SF values.
In practical applications, it is known that data is transmitted in a packetized manner in a radio communication system based on the burst communication scheme.

Step S3, keeping the current value of the spreading factor SF, demodulating the chirp signal until the demodulation is finished, and then go to step S1. Specifically, in a case of assuming that the current value of the spreading factor SF is 8, the spreading factor SF is maintained at 8, and demodulation of the chirp signal is started until the demodulation is finished, and the process goes to step S1.
Step S3 further includes: and judging whether the demodulation of the linear frequency modulation signal is finished or not. In this embodiment, if the demodulation is finished, the process goes to step S1, and if the demodulation is not finished, the demodulation is continued.
