Patent ID: 7155251

Claim:
A mobile radio apparatus which transmits a first radio transmitting signal or a second radio transmitting signal, the mobile radio apparatus comprising: a first amplifier driven by a power signal and a bias signal separate from the power signal, the first amplifier configured to amplify the first radio transmitting signals to a power level for transmission; a second amplifier driven by the power signal and the bias-signal, the second amplifier configured to amplify the second radio transmitting signal to a power level for transmission; a switching circuit configured to turn ON/OFF the power supplied to the first and second amplifiers; a bias supply unit configured to supply the bias to selectively one of the first and second amplifiers; and a control unit configured to control the bias supply unit to supply the bias to the first amplifier and to control the switching circuit to turn ON the power supplied to the first and second amplifiers, when the first radio transmitting signal is to be transmitted, and to control the bias supply unit to supply the bias to the second amplifier and to control the switching circuit to turn ON the power supplied to the first and second amplifiers, when the second radio transmitting signal is to be transmitted.
