The present invention provides a modulation/ demodulation circuit and a communication system utilizing the modulation/demodulation circuit. The modulation/ demodulation circuit can be operated in either of a modulation/demodulation mode wherein an input signal is frequency inverted and scrambled or descrambled and a through mode wherein the input signal is directly outputted therefrom without being subject to any processing. In a private communication system, two such modulation/ demodulation circuits are used as a scrambler in the transmission-side and as a descrambler in the reception-side. In order to prevent the low band characteristic of the reception-side output in the through mode from being different from that of the modulation/demodulation mode, the modulation/demodulation circuit may include a high pass filter. The high pass filter a low band cut-off characteristic reciprocal to a low pass filter for removing the upper side band from the output of a double balanced mixer.
