In a wireless transmission system that transmits and receives a modulated signal between a transmitter and a receiver that are coupled through a wireless transmission path, the transmitter includes a spectrum division filter bank dividing the modulated signal and generating a plurality of sub-spectrum signals each of which is arranged at a predetermined frequency position, and subjects the plurality of sub-spectrum signals arranged in spectra to a direct spectrum division transmission, and the receiver includes a spectrum combination filter bank extracting the plurality of sub-spectrum signals from the received signals arranged in spectra and subjected to the direct spectrum division transmission to combine the sub-spectrum signals into an original modulated signal.
