A transmitting device according to the present invention comprises: a coding unit which encodes a transmission information bit string to a code bit string; a low-order modulating unit which conducts low-order modulation on the code bit string outputted from the encoding unit; a first frequency domain converting unit which converts the low-order modulated signal outputted from the low-order modulating unit to a frequency domain signal; a partial spectrum selecting unit which selects a central 1/M portion (M is an integer greater than or equal to two) of a spectrum from the frequency spectrum outputted from the first frequency domain converting unit; and a first time domain converting unit which converts the spectrum selected signal outputted from the partial spectrum selecting unit to a time domain signal.
