Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control transmission power through the use of an ACK(at the time of normal reception)/NACK(at the time of abnormal reception) signal. SOLUTION: It is identified whether a response signal returned from a base station after data is transmitted is ACK or NACK(S104) and '1' is added in a counter at the time of the ACK signal(S105). A control part monitors the count value of a counter and collates the present count value of the counter with a previously set ACK signal reception time m being 3(S106). At the time of non-matching, a step is shifted to the step 103, the processings of the step S104-S106 are repeated till the count value of the counter becomes '3', the counter is reset to '0' when the count value of the counter becomes m=3(S107) and the lowering of transmission power is indicated to a transmission part(S108). When the NACK signal is identified in the step S104, addition is not executed in the counter while an initial value is kept to be '0' (S109)1 and a control signal for indicating the raise of transmission power as against the transmitting part is immediately outputted(S110).
