Communication apparatus

A communication apparatus, comprising:

• an antenna;
• a signal processing unit that processes a signal transmitted or received by the antenna;
• an annunciating unit that performs a predetermined annunciation based on the signal processed by the signal processing unit;
• an operation detecting unit having an operating unit, an oscillating unit that outputs an oscillation signal, and a detecting unit that detects an oscillation signal outputted from the oscillating unit, and which detects an operation on the operating unit based on variations in the oscillation signal of the oscillating unit detected by the detecting unit and which are associated with the operation;
• and
• a control unit that suppresses the annunciation by the annunciating unit when processing of the signal by the signal processing unit and output of the oscillation signal by the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit are performed concurrently.

A communication apparatus, comprising:

• an antenna;
• a transmission/reception level detecting unit that detects a transmission/reception level of a signal transmitted or received by the antenna;
• a signal processing unit that processes a signal transmitted or received by the antenna;
• an operation detecting unit having an operating unit, an oscillating unit that outputs an oscillation signal, and a detecting unit that detects an oscillation signal outputted from the oscillating unit, and which detects an operation on the operating unit based on variations in the oscillation signal of the oscillating unit detected by the detecting unit and which are associated with the operation;
• and
• a control unit which, when processing of the signal by the signal processing unit and output of the oscillation signal by the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit are performed concurrently and the transmission/reception level of the signal detected by the transmission/reception level detecting unit is equal to or greater than a predetermined level, performs any of reducing an amplitude of the oscillation signal outputted by the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit, varying a frequency of the oscillation signal outputted by the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit, suppressing a supply of power to the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit, and combinatorial control thereof, while when processing of the signal by the signal processing unit and output of the oscillation signal by the oscillating unit of the operation detecting unit are performed concurrently and the transmission/reception level of the signal detected by the transmission/reception level detecting unit is lower than the predetermined level, suppresses the control of an oscillation output of the oscillating unit.
