Abstract

A receiving equipment adjusts a path search window width in path search processing according to the saved timing information, after saving a timing information detected at the time of cell search processing. A Radio Frequency (RF) unit receives signals which are sent from a base station and transmitted via a plurality of paths (multi-pass). A cell search unit detects scrambling codes peculiar to the base station in received signals and generates timing information corresponding to multi-pass when the same scrambling code is detected in a plurality of timings. A path timing memory unit saves each of the timing information on each of the multi-pass. A path search unit controls search window width and search start timing in reference to the timing information of the same scrambling code to perform path search.
