There are provided a sampling filter that enables a filter characteristic to be adjusted flexibly, and a radio communication apparatus equipped with this sampling filter. A sampling filter apparatus (100) is equipped with four integration units (150-1 through 150-4) corresponding to the number of filter taps, and some of the integration units (150-1 through 150-4) include an integrator having an MEMS structure. By this means, a charge amount (accumulated charge amount) of a received signal integrated by an integrator can be adjusted by adjusting the capacity of an integrator having an MEMS structure. A received signal amount emitted from an integration unit can also be adjusted by adjustment of the integration amount of a received signal, enabling the filter characteristic of the sampling filter apparatus (100) to be adjusted flexibly.
A sampling filter that implements an m-tap (where m is a natural number) FIR filter characteristic by having a received signal as input and integrating and emitting an input received signal, the sampling filter including m integration units corresponding to the m taps,
A sampling filter comprising:
