Cellular communication system

A user equipment configured to establish a radio connection with a cellular communication network and perform a cellular communication by using the radio connection, the user equipment comprising:

• a transmitter configured to transmit, to a base station included in the cellular communication network, a request message including both a first request information requesting to resume the radio connection in a predetermined state where the radio connection is suspended and a second request information requesting to establish a new radio connection;
• a receiver configured to receive, from the base station, a response message indicating to establish a new radio connection, without receiving, from the base station, a rejection message rejecting the request message even when a UE context corresponding to the user equipment is not usable by the base station, wherein
• the user equipment further comprises a controller configured to determine whether predetermined system information is broadcast from the base station, the predetermined system information indicating that transmission of the request message including both the first request information and the second request information is permitted, and
• the transmitter is configured to transmit the request message in response to determining that the predetermined system information is broadcast from the base station.

A base station included in a cellular communication network configured to establish a radio connection with a user equipment and perform a cellular communication by using the radio connection, the base station comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive, from the user equipment, a request message including both a first request information requesting to resume the radio connection in a predetermined state where the radio connection is suspended and a second request information requesting to establish a new radio connection;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit, to the user equipment, a response message indicating to establish a new radio connection, without transmitting, to the user equipment, a rejection message rejecting the request message even when a UE context corresponding to the user equipment transmitting the request message is not usable by the base station, wherein
• the receiver is configured to receive a random access signal for notifying the base station of an intention of transmitting the request message including both the first request information and the second request information, and
• the transmitter is configured to transmit to the user equipment, as a response to the random access signal, allocation information indicating uplink radio resources used for transmission of the request message.
