Disclosed herein is a phase noise limiting apparatus including a detection section configured to detect a phase noise quantity from an input signal; a determination section configured such that furnished with a plurality of correspondence tables indicating parameters used for phase synchronization with the input signal, the determination section determines one of the parameters in keeping with the phase noise quantity detected by the detection section on the basis of one of the plurality of correspondence tables; and a phase noise limitation section configured to limit the phase noise in the input signal based on the parameter determined by the determination section.
