A PHS terminal device has first and second checking mechanisms, first and
second starting mechanisms, a first storing mechanism, first confirming
mechanism, and processing mechanism. The first checking mechanism
executes a first check to determine detection of a Unique Word when
receiving a time slot and outputs a first interrupting signal upon
detection. The first starting mechanism starts a first interrupting
routine in response to the first interrupting signal. The first storing
mechanism stores the first check result. The second checking mechanism
executes a second check determining whether reception of the time slot is
completed and outputs a second interrupting signal when reception of the
time slot is completed, and the second starting mechanism starts a second
interrupting routine in response. The first confirming mechanism confirms
the first check result. The processing mechanism executes data processing
of the time slot according to the confirmation result of the second
interrupting routine.
