This is what is called multipath. When FM radio waves are received in a place where this multipath occurs, signals with phase and amplitude interference are induced in the receiving antenna, and the demodulated reproduced sound contains distortion and noise, making it difficult to hear. As a method of removing this multipath noise, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 1, a filter 8 is provided between a detection circuit 5 and a low frequency amplifier circuit 6 to attenuate (high cut) high frequency components in the audio signal. Further, after the intermediate frequency amplifier 4, a multipath noise detection circuit 9 is provided which outputs an output when detecting multipath noise. When the multipath noise detection circuit 9 is not outputting, the filter 8 is not activated and there is no attenuation of high-frequency components in the audio signal, and when the multipath noise detection circuit 9 is outputting, the filter 8 is not activated.
is activated to attenuate its high frequency components. When multipath noise occurs in this way, the high-frequency components of the audio signal are attenuated to make the distortion less noticeable to the auditory sense. Further, the case in which there is no attenuation in the high range is shown by a solid line in FIG. 2, and the case in which there is attenuation in the high range is shown in the same figure by a broken line. Note that 1 is a receiving antenna, 2 is a high frequency amplifier, 3 is a frequency converter, and 7 is a speaker.

When such a method is used, noise is removed according to the occurrence of multipath noise, and the listener is not made to feel uncomfortable due to the noise. However, regarding the volume, as shown in Figure 2, the conventional example above attenuates the high frequency range when multipath noise is occurring, and it is difficult to attenuate in order to obtain a sufficient feeling of reducing multipath noise. Since the amount is increased, the overall volume will be lower than when multipath noise is not occurring. Therefore, for example, when receiving the same broadcast content in a vehicle equipped with an FM receiver, if the listener passes through areas where multipath noise occurs and areas where it does not occur, the reproduced voice volume will fluctuate and the listener may There is a problem in that people feel discomfort due to changes in volume.

The receiving device includes a volume reduction means for reducing the volume by a certain amount, and a volume reduction control means that operates the means when the noise detection circuit does not detect noise and deactivates it when the noise detection circuit detects noise. The sound volume does not change depending on whether the high frequency range of the audio frequency is attenuated or not.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. Note that the same members are given the same reference numerals. In the figure, an inverter 10 inverts the output of the multipath noise detection circuit 9, and a volume reduction circuit 11 attenuates the detection output almost uniformly over the entire area when no multipath noise occurs, and reproduces the output. This is a circuit that reduces the volume. In addition,
The multipath noise detection circuit 9 includes, for example, an AM detection circuit that detects the amplitude component of an intermediate frequency signal and a Schmitt trigger circuit.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained. First, a case where multipath noise occurs will be explained. In this case, since the multipath noise detection circuit 9 outputs, the transistor 8a in the filter 8 is turned on, and the high frequency components in the audio signal are attenuated.
The reproduced sound has less noticeable distortion to the auditory sense, and at the same time, the volume decreases in proportion to the attenuation. On the other hand, since the inverter 10 inverts the output of the multipath noise detection circuit 9, the inverter 10 does not output,
Therefore, since the transistor 11a is off, there is almost no attenuation of the signal in the volume reduction circuit 11.

Next, when multipath noise is not occurring, the multipath noise detection circuit 9 does not output any output, so the transistor 8a is turned off, and there is no attenuation of high frequency components in the audio signal. In this case, since the inverter 10 outputs, the transistor 11a is turned on, and a part of the audio signal flows evenly from the low frequency range to the high frequency range to the ground.
The playback volume generated by the speaker 7 decreases in accordance with the amount flowing to the ground. Here, each of the circuit elements constituting the filter 8 and the volume reduction circuit 11 is configured so that the amount of reduction in the playback volume due to the operation of the volume reduction circuit 11 is the same as the amount of reduction in the reproduction volume due to the operation of the filter 8. constants are set.

Therefore, even if the signal alternately passes through areas where multipath noise does not occur and areas where it occurs, there is no change in the playback volume between them.

The following aspects can also be considered as embodiments of the present invention. Instead of the volume reduction circuit 11, the impedance between the detection circuit 5 and the filter 8 may be changed depending on the presence or absence of multipath noise, and the volume reduction circuit 11 or the filter 8 may be installed at another location in the audio signal system. Alternatively, the detection circuit 9 may be provided after the detection circuit 5. Furthermore, in the third illustrated embodiment, if even a small amount of multipath noise occurs, the same amount of attenuation is always performed by the filter 8, regardless of the amount. However, the amount of attenuation by the filter 8 may be controlled depending on the amount of multipath noise, and the reproduction volume may be kept constant regardless of the presence or absence of multipath noise.
