Shift control circuit and wireless device

Abstract

A signal input from a microphone is A-D converted by an A-D converter, is frequency differentiated by a pre-emphasis circuit, and is input to a shift control circuit. The shift control circuit includes a limiter circuit, a phase shifter, and a harmonic suppressor. The limiter circuit performs amplitude limitation so as to limit the amplitude of the input control target signal to be equal to or less than a first threshold. The phase shifter shifts, for the control target signal having the amplitude limited, a phase of a frequency component within the predetermined frequency range. The harmonic suppressor suppresses, for the control target signal phase-shifted by the phase shifter, a frequency component equal to or greater than a second threshold, and outputs an information signal that is the control target signal having the frequency component of equal to or greater than the second threshold suppressed. The modulator performs frequency modulation on a carrier wave in accordance with the information signal. The transmitter produces a transmission signal from the frequency-modulated carrier wave, and transmits the transmission signal via an antenna.
