A method and apparatus capable of restricting the resending operation are
disclosed, in which the resending operation is controlled by determining
the conditions of the input signal from a movable transmitting end, based
on the guard interval period set in the signal to be resent, thereby
resending only a valid transmission signal. Once an input signal is
supplied from the movable transmitting end to the resending apparatus, a
guard information detector determines whether the input signal is to be
resent or not, based on the degree of correlation of the guard interval
period, and controls the operation of a voltage-controlled amplifier,
thereby resending only a valid transmission signal. This determination is
made based on the degree of correlation between a signal converted from
the input signal and the guard interval period of the signal delayed from
the converted signal.
