Abstract
When the diversity reception is cut, communications with the base station are continued. When it is judged by the judgment section of the mobile communication terminal that a predetermined disconnection requirement for disconnecting diversity reception is satisfied, the gain control section of the digital baseband circuitryreduces the gain of the AGCB contained in the RF receiver circuitryB constituting the disconnection target by a fixed value at fixed times. Diversity reception is cut after the level of the signal output by the AGCB has reached zero.
