Abstract
There is provided a base station of a radio communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the base station including a generator configured to generate configuration information indicating whether measurement requirements on reception quality are allowed to be relaxed with respect to a frequency of a predetermined secondary cell or with respect to the predetermined secondary cell, among a plurality of secondary cells, and a transmitter configured to transmit the configuration information to a user apparatus.
Claims7
A base station of a radio communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the base station comprising:
- a generator configured to generate configuration information indicating whether measurement requirements on reception quality are allowed to be relaxed with respect to a frequency of a predetermined secondary cell or with respect to the predetermined secondary cell, among a plurality of secondary cells;
- and
- a transmitter configured to transmit the configuration information to a user apparatus.
A user apparatus of a radio communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the user apparatus comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive, from a base station, configuration information indicating whether measurement requirements on reception quality are allowed to be relaxed with respect to a frequency of a predetermined secondary cell or with respect to the predetermined secondary cell, among a plurality of secondary cells;
- and
- a measurement unit configured to determine, when the reception quality is to be measured on the frequency of the secondary cell in an active state, whether the reception quality is to be measured under measurement requirements more relaxed than measurement requirements allowed for measuring the reception quality of the frequency of the secondary cell in the active state based on the configuration information, and configured to measure the reception quality in accordance with the determined measurement requirements.
A measurement requirements reporting method executed by a base station of a radio communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the measurement requirements reporting method comprising:
- generating configuration information indicating whether measurement requirements on reception quality are allowed to be relaxed with respect to a frequency of a predetermined secondary cell or with respect to the predetermined secondary cell, among a plurality of secondary cells;
- and
- transmitting the configuration information to a user apparatus.
A measurement method executed by a user apparatus of a radio communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the measurement method comprising:
- receiving, from a base station, configuration information indicating whether measurement requirements on reception quality are allowed to be relaxed with respect to a frequency of a predetermined secondary cell or with respect to the predetermined secondary cell, among a plurality of secondary cells;
- and
- determining, when the reception quality is to be measured on the frequency of the secondary cell in an active state, whether the reception quality is to be measured under measurement requirements more relaxed than measurement requirements allowed for measuring the reception quality of the frequency of the secondary cell in the active state based on the configuration information, and measuring the reception quality in accordance with the determined measurement requirements.
