However, the prior art has the following problems to be solved. It is indispensable for the transmission power control to accurately detect its own transmission power amount. However, in the conventional transmission power control system,
The detection characteristics of the detector for measuring the transmission power amount had large variations among the devices. Also, the output of the detector fluctuated greatly depending on the surrounding environment. For the above reasons, it has been difficult to accurately detect the own transmission power amount.
On the other hand, since the transmission power amount is controlled only by the communication quality of the received signal, sometimes the battery is emptied by trying to control it, for example, when it is in a state where it cannot be controlled under a special surrounding environment. Case also occurred.
