Abstract
A portable wireless device that makes it possible to maintain any desired matching state and can suppress an increase in the loss accompanying matching if the impedance characteristic of an antenna changes with expansion/storage of the antenna, deformation of a housing, etc., is provided.Two channels of signal paths that can be selected by switch section 11, 15 are provided between an antenna 10 and a reception circuit 16; a first low noise amplifier 13 that can amplify a received high frequency signal is provided in one path and a second low noise amplifier 18 having an impedance characteristic different from the low noise amplifier 13 is provided in the other signal path. The form of the antenna 10 or the form of a housing is detected in a form change detection section 20 and the two channels of signal paths are automatically switched in a control section and two types of impedance matching states are used properly.
