Abstract
In a mobile communication terminal, a communication control section controls communication on the basis of a selected radio communication system or frequency band and manages the state of communication. A signal-strength-indicator acquiring and storing section acquires signal-strength indicators and stores it. A communication-state acquiring section acquires the state of communication. A signal-strength-indication displaying control section determines whether a radio communication system or a frequency band is being searched for from the communication state. When it is being searched for, antenna bars indicative of signal strength are not shown or flashed when the signal-strength indicator is indicated on a display section.
