In order to reduce a discontinuity resulting from noise cancellation in an output signal of a noise canceller, particularly in lower-frequency components, a compensator (10) for use in, for example, a radio receiver, comprises two amplifiers (21, 22) for amplifying an input signal in which one or more noise pulses may be superposed. One of the amplifier output signals is given a delay relative to the other. Supplied with a noise detection signal, gates (26, 27) interrupts the amplifier output signals to cancel the noise pulse that substantially simultaneously appears in the both signals. A combination of capacitors (31-33) superposes one of the noise-cancelled signal on the other during presence of the noise pulse to provide an output signal in which the discontinuity is compensated for.
A compensator for use in combination with a noise pulse detecting system responsive to an input signal including a noise pulse for detecting said noise pulse to produce a detection pulse having a predetermined duration, said noise pulse having frequency components higher than said input signal, said compensator being responsive to said input signal and said detection pulse for compensating for said noise pulse to produce an output signal exempted from said noise pulse, wherein the improvement comprises:
