The invention relates to a radio receiver which receives reception waves
modulated with a frame being a sequence of slots and reproduces
transmission information that is distributed to the slots. An object of
the invention is to increase the reliability of channel inference and
improve the transmission quality without substantially altering a basic
configuration. A radio receiver of the invention performs
quasi-synchronous detection on reception waves modulated with a frame;
determines an error in a sequence of first vectors and a sequence of
second vectors as an average of deviations of particular symbol positions
to be indicated by the sequence of first vectors indicating a sequence of
words included in each slot in a signal space, and the sequence of second
vectors indicating known information included in the slots; and
compensates for the error in the signal space.
