Abstract:
1. A mobile communication terminal comprising: a signal-sending/receiving unit capable of sending and receiving multiplexed signals through a plurality of channels, a transmission-power adjuster to adjust transmission power of the individual channels, a transmission-power controller to control a power-distribution ratio for adjustment of transmission power of the individual channels by said transmission-power adjuster, an information holder holding the maximum transmission power of the mobile communication terminal, and a priority-setting unit to set order of priority of the individual channels by using prescribed materials for determining the order of priority; wherein said transmission-power controller compares the transmission power demanded by a communication terminal at the other end through said signal-sending/receiving unit and the maximum transmission power held by said information holder and controls the transmission power of individual channels according to the transmission power demanded by the communication device at the other end, and wherein, if the total transmission power of the individual channels is going to exceed the maximum transmission power, said transmission-power controller determines the power-distribution ratio among the channels so that transmission power of a channel given priority by said priority-setting unit is adjusted to a power level demanded by the communication device at the other end on the one hand and transmission power of a channel or channels not given priority by said priority-setting unit is adjusted so as to confine total transmission power to the maximum transmission power on the other hand.
