Conventional configurations and their problems In recent years, FM broadcasting has entered the era of multiple stations, and FM stereo radio receivers are increasingly being used as sources of highly musical sound in car radio receivers. However, FM radio waves have shorter wavelengths than medium waves, and it is said to be difficult to receive them in good radio conditions when cars are constantly moving. For example, noise and distortion caused by multipath interference are major factors in deteriorating sound quality. Many attempts have been made to eliminate and reduce this multipath interference, some of which are listed below.

Based on the above configuration, an intermediate frequency signal corresponding to the electric field strength is normally output to terminal a according to the characteristics shown in FIG. It is removed and applied to terminal b. Terminal b is a terminal for controlling the degree of separation of the stereo demodulation circuit 6 using a DC voltage, and its characteristics are as shown in FIG.
When multipath interference occurs, it is equivalent to when the electric field strength decreases, so the potential at terminal a becomes
It decreases according to the characteristics of the figure. This drop fluctuation is detected by the diode 9, resistor 10, and capacitor 11, lowering the potential at terminal b and transmitting it to the stereo demodulation circuit 6.
This reduces the noise caused by multipath interference. The problem here is that when multipath interference occurs, the potential at terminal a fluctuates with a waveform as shown in FIG. 4, depending on the radio wave condition.
At this time, although the detection output is subjected to multipath interference, the DC voltage V D and AC voltage υ a shown in Fig. 5 are applied to terminal b, so the stereo demodulation circuit 6
It is not possible to control the degree of separation and reduce noise.
