Abstract
A mobile communication receiver of a spread spectrum communication system has a plurality of fingers, a synthesizer for synthesizing data reproduced by the fingers, a power measurement unit for measuring power of reproduction output of the fingers and total power thereof, a error detection unit for detecting an error of output data of the synthesizer, and a control unit for controlling power on and off of the fingers based on the measurement result of the power measurement unit and the error detection result of the error detection means. Power consumption can be reduced in the range in which an error increase does not result.
