A diversity receiver includes a first antenna and a second antenna. A first receiving section connected to the first antenna serves to convert a digital modulation wave induced at the first antenna into a first intermediate-frequency signal. A first band pass filter connected to the first receiving section serves to subject the first intermediate-frequency signal to a band pass filtering process. A second receiving section connected to the second antenna serves to convert a digital modulation wave induced at the second antenna into a second intermediate-frequency signal. A second band pass filter connected to the second receiving section serves to subject the second intermediate-frequency signal to a band pass filtering process. A switch alternately selects one of output signals of the first and second band pass filters at a period equal to a half of a period corresponding to the symbol rate. A quadrature demodulator connected to the switch serves to demodulate an output signal of the switch into quadrature baseband signals. An analog-to-digital converter connected to the quadrature demodulator converts the quadrature baseband signals into corresponding digital signals. A decision feedback adaptive equalizer connected to the analog-to-digital converter serves to subject the digital signals to an equalizing process.
