There is provided a reception circuit that includes a local signal generation section, a duty-cycle correction section, an oscillation signal generation section, and a mixture section. The local signal generation section is configured to generate a local signal, the local signal being different in frequency from a modulated reception signal. The duty-cycle correction section is configured to correct a duty cycle of the generated local signal to be a predetermined value. The oscillation signal generation section is configured to generate a plurality of oscillation signals, the oscillation signals being generated using the duty-cycle-corrected local signal to vary in phase. The mixture section is configured to mix the reception signal with each of the oscillation signals.
