A gain control circuit has a transmission power amplifier that amplifies a
transmission signal to a predetermined level. An adjacent channel leak
power ratio monitor finds a ratio of a distortion element corresponding
to an adjacent channel leak power to a main element from an output signal
supplied from the transmission power amplifier, and outputs the found
ratio as an ACPR monitor value. A power supply control section variously
controls power supply to the transmission power amplifier with use of the
ACPR monitor value supplied from the adjacent channel leak power ratio
monitor. A transmission signal level variable section controls a gain of
a transmission signal path on the basis of a transmission level monitor
value supplied from the adjacent channel leak power ratio monitor,
thereby varying a level of the transmission signal.
