The present invention provides a scattered pilot (SP) location detector capable of detecting patterns of SP symbols promptly without using a TMCC signal. The SP location detector comprises a multiplier which multiplies received signals generated by demodulating OFDM modulation signals in which pilot symbols are dispersively disposed in accordance with four types of patterns and which are transmitted periodically, by a pseudo-random number bit sequence, four arithmetic circuits which are respectively provided corresponding to the four types of patterns and which respectively extract pilot symbols corresponding to respective patterns from results of multiplication by the multiplier and calculate sums of phase differences between the extracted pilot symbols, followed by outputting absolute values thereof, and a pattern detection circuit which detects the corresponding arithmetic circuit maximum in the calculated absolute value from within the four arithmetic circuits.
