Abstract: In a radio communication system in which a mobile station device and a base station device communicate with each other, power of a signal from the mobile station device to the base station device is efficiently controlled. When a finally received DCI format for PUSCH is a DCI format 0 or a DCI format 4 in which two transport blocks are enabled, a scheduling unit (1013) notifies, to a transmission power control unit (1015), that ?power-offset is 0. When the finally received DCI format for PUSCH is a DCI format 4 in which one of the transport blocks is disabled, the scheduling unit (1013) notifies, to the transmission power control unit (1015), ?power-offset that is decided from a value set in a New data indicator field for the disabled transport block.

An image display apparatus includes a display panel (17); a light source (11) that irradiates the display panel (17); and a control unit (5).

When the amount of change in light source luminance is smaller than a threshold value, the control unit (5) decreases the light source luminance without performing the picture signal brightness correction.
