1. A communication device, comprising:
a communication section configured to receive, via a transceiving antenna, a reference signal from a base station;
a measurement section configured to measure a reception-signal level based on the reference signal; and
a decision section configured to:
determine, based on the reception-signal level, a number of times of transmission to start random access to the base station;
determine a sum of a reception target power value at the base station, an attenuation of a first transmission power from the base station to the communication device, and a difference between a gain in a reception frequency band of the transceiving antenna and a gain in a transmission frequency band of the transceiving antenna;
compare the sum with a maximum transmission power of the communication device; and
determine, based on the comparison, a second transmission power for the start of the random access to the base station.
