A radio communication terminal has a plurality of matching circuits that optimize the efficiency of a power amplifier for a range of different battery voltages. A first matching circuit optimizes the efficiency of the power amplifier for a battery voltage higher than a predetermined threshold value. A second matching circuit optimizes the efficiency of the power amplifier at a voltage lower than the threshold value. A control section compares a detection result of a battery voltage from a voltage monitor section with the threshold value, and performs switching between the plurality of matching circuits.
