Abstract
Provided is an LTE-system mobile communication terminal in which a reduction in terminal size and a reduction in the number of components is desired when a terrestrial digital television broadcast is to be received. Two antennas from among terrestrial digital television broadcast receiving antennas are switched and controlled so as to also be used as transmitting/receiving antennas from LTE communication, and the reception diversity is switched to either a 2-system combination or 4-system combination in accordance with whether the television broadcast is in the VHF band or UHF band. As a result, the number of antennas for example can be reduced and the terminal costs and size can be reduced.
