<p>An intermittent reception ratio between a period of calls from the base station (30) to the mobile communication apparatus and a period of intermittent reception effected by associated periodic supply of the operating power from the battery is set in an intermittent reception ratio setting unit (51) implemented by a processor (21) in the main control unit (6) and a mode flag in a memory (23), in accordance with extended information items contained in announcement information from the base station (30). The intermittent reception ratio may alternatively be set by a terminal device (32) connected to the mobile communication apparatus via a connection unit (25). The power supply control unit (5) supplies an operating power to a reception unit (19) in accordance with the intermittent reception ratio set in the intermittent reception ratio setting unit (51).</p> |
