Abstract
A control section comprises receiving energy estimating means for estimating Ec/Io of a receiving signal and switch change control means for changing antennas, in order to implement new control functions. If Ec/Io of the signal received via a selected antenna is lower than a preset level at the incoming or outgoing call time or at the communication time, reception is temporarily executed via the other antenna to detect Ec/Io. After that, the antenna having preferable Ec/Io is employed for the reception.
