Abstract
A mobile communication method and a mobile station appropriately use equivalent band indicators. The mobile communication method includes: a step of broadcasting, by a radio base station BS, a band indicator indicating a band 19 and an equivalent band indicator indicating bands 5 and B26 overlapping the band 19; and a step of performing, by a mobile station UE, an connection process in a band 5 or B26 when the mobile station is not compatible with the band 19 indicated by the received first band indicator and is compatible with the band 5 or B26 indicated by the received equivalent band indicator.
Claims4
A mobile communication method comprising:
- a step of broadcasting, by a radio base station, a first band indicator indicating a first band and a second band indicator indicating a second band which overlaps the first band;
- a step of performing, by a mobile station, an connection process in the first band when the mobile station is compatible with the first band indicated by the received first band indicator;
- and
- a step of performing, by the mobile station, an connection process in the second band when the mobile station is not compatible with the first band indicated by the received first band indicator and is compatible with the second band indicated by the received second band indicator.
A mobile communication method comprising:
- a step of broadcasting, by a radio base station, a band indicator indicating a plurality of overlapping bands in order of narrowing bandwidth;
- and
- a step of performing, by a mobile station, an connection process in a compatible band which is first indicated by the received band indicator.
A mobile station comprising:
- a receiving unit configured to receive a first band indicator and a second band indicator;
- and
- an connection processing unit configured to perform an connection process,
- wherein when the mobile station is compatible with a first band indicated by the first band indicator received by the receiving unit, the connection processing unit performs an connection process in the first band, and
- when the mobile station is not compatible with the first band indicated by the first band indicator received by the receiving unit and is compatible with a second band indicated by the second band indicator received by the receiving unit, the connection processing unit performs an connection process in the second band.
A mobile station comprising:
- a receiving unit configured to receive a band indicator;
- and
- an connection processing unit configured to perform an connection process in a compatible band which is first indicated by the band indicator received by the receiving unit.
