Abstract
A radio switching apparatus is provided which is actuated upon reception of a radio signal and which is capable zero or near-zero standby electric power consumption. The radio switching apparatus includes a receiving antenna; a surface-acoustic-wave device to which a signal received by the antenna is fed and which extracts a specific pattern contained in the signal; a storing circuit for storing output electric power of the surface-acoustic-wave device; and a switch circuit which is turned on when the output voltage of the storing circuit exceeds a set value.
