In order to provide a transmission device which can resolve the deterioration in transmission characteristics due to lack of the resolution of a D/A converter in a high speed and large capacity digital communication, a transmission device according to an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes an encoding unit encoding input data; an unequal-interval quantization unit quantizing an output signal from the encoding unit by a quantization level number based on a resolution of a subsequent digital-to-analog conversion unit by using an unequally spaced quantization level interval based on the output signal; the digital-to-analog conversion unit converting an output signal from the unequal-interval quantization unit into an analog signal; an output level adjustment unit adjusting an output level of the digital-to-analog conversion unit so as to compensate a difference between a predetermined initial transfer function and a transfer function of the unequal-interval quantization unit; and a modulation unit generating a transmission signal based on an output signal of the digital-to-analog conversion unit adjusted by the output level adjustment unit. |
