Abstract

PURPOSE: To quickly detect the reception signal level in a digital demodulator having a low data transmission speed. CONSTITUTION: A reception signal is subjected to envelope detection by an envelope detection circuit 8, and it is discriminated whether the output exceeds a prescribed level or not by a reception level discrimination comparator 9. The base band signal is digitally converted by an A/D converter 1, and the digital output is divided into plural ranges, and output bits in each range are counted by a counter 3 provided correspondingly to each range. The range distribution of counted values is changed because an eye pattern is opened/closed by settlement/unsettlement of synchronism. The degree of opening of this eye pattern is discriminated by a memory 4 and a flag discrimination circuit 5 to determine the settlement of synchronism. When the signal after envelope detection exceeds the prescribed level and the eye pattern is in the open state, it is discriminated that the objective signal is received, and a changeover switch 7 is switched to generate a reception input level output.
