The present invention provides a mobile terminal and a method of executing scanning for radio signals in the case where the mobile terminal is connectable to multiple radio communication systems employing different radio communication schemes. The mobile terminal and the method can scan for radio signals transmitted from a radio base station at an appropriate timing without modifying the existing radio base station or the like. The mobile terminal includes a WLAN controller configured to cause a WLAN communication unit to execute scanning for radio signals transmitted from an access point. Scanning is executed if a scrambling code determining unit determines that a scrambling code contained in notification matches a scrambling code stored in a scrambling code information storage, and if a position determining unit determines that a certain position indicated by position information stored in a GPS position information storage is within a predetermined distance from a current position of the mobile terminal.
