Abstract

Abstract An image memory (18) stores, for example, an image taken by a camera (17) and an image obtained via a route of an antenna (1), transmit/receive switching section (7), receiving section (7) and demodulating section (8). At a time of an incoming call, a controller (11) reads out an output of the demodulating section (8) to obtain a telephone number, etc., of a calling party's side and reads out an image corresponding to the obtained telephone number, etc., to allow it to be displayed on a display section (14). This arrangement achieves a mobile radio terminal which, even if it has a relatively small display section, enables the user to readily identify the calling party at a time of an incoming call.
