Publication number: 20140119415Abstract: A wireless device includes a wireless unit, a baseband processing unit, an event-initiation detecting unit, and an amplitude-level control unit. The wireless unit performs signal processing on a radio signal. The baseband processing unit is connected to the wireless unit through a digital communication channel and transmits/receives a digital signal with the wireless unit through the digital communication channel. The event-initiation detecting unit detects whether an event causing a fluctuation in power supply voltage supplied to the wireless unit or the baseband processing unit is initiated.
