A radio device including: a processor configured to execute a procedure including a difference calculating process which calculates, when a plurality of transmission symbols are one symbol with different assignment positions of one of a frequency area and a time area, a difference between an assignment position of one reference symbol and an assignment position of another symbol among the plurality of transmission symbols, and a shift process which generates a symbol by shift processing of one of the frequency area and the time area with respect to the reference symbol, which is assigned to the an assignment position and subjected to an orthogonal transform processing, according to the difference; and a transmitter configured to performs transmitting processing based on the reference symbol which is subjected to the orthogonal transform processing and the generated symbol by the shift processing.
