Multiband-Multimode Mobile Communication Terminal and Its Method for Controlling the Modem Power

The present invention is directed to an MB-MM mobile communication terminal. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an MB-MM mobile communication terminal comprising a first modem and a second modem, further comprises an activation control unit determining whether the second modem is activated if the activation control unit receives an activation order from the first modem for activating the second modem. The activation control unit authorizes the power to the second modem only if the second modem is not activated. The present invention can provide an MB-MM mobile communication terminal that is able to prevent an equipped modem from being read as activated although the equipped modem is actually not activated and a method for controlling the modem power of the MB-MM mobile communication terminal.
