    摘要: A wireless communication device suppresses increase in computation scale when applying maximum likelihood detection to a multi-level modulation scheme. Units calculate a likelihood, bit log-likelihood ratio, and mutual information content for the separation result of a received signal on the basis of the signal point of a reference selected from among a plurality of signal points that a transmitted signal can assume. A transmission candidate point selection unit selects signal points in a number that corresponds to the mutual information content as transmission candidate points from among the plurality of signal points in ascending order of distance to 0 and distance to 1 for each modulation bit that constitutes the signal point of the reference. A reception candidate point that is a candidate for the received signal is calculated. An external LLR calculation unit calculates the bit log-likelihood ratio by an MLD method.
