## Abstract

The present invention is designed to provide a user terminal and a radio communication method, whereby adequate communication can be performed when contention-based UL transmission is employed. A user terminal according to the present invention has a transmission section that transmits UL data and a reference signal without a UL transmission command from a radio base station, and control section that controls transmission of the UL data and the reference signal, and the control section applies a reference signal that can identify the user terminal, as the reference signal, and controls transmission of the UL data and the reference signal by using predetermined resources that are configured in advance.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

-7. (canceled)

### Claim 8

A terminal comprising:
a transmission section that performs UL data transmission without a UL transmission command from a radio base station and performs UL data transmission in accordance with a UL transmission command from the radio base station; and
a control section that controls so that a transmission power parameter of the UL data transmission without the UL transmission command and a transmission power parameter of the UL data transmission in accordance with the UL transmission command are different from each other.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The terminal according to claim 8, wherein the UL data transmission in accordance with the UL transmission command is applied with fractional transmission power control.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The terminal according to claim 9, wherein the UL data transmission without the UL transmission command and the UL data transmission in accordance with the UL transmission command are configured to have different transmission power control parameters α.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The terminal according to claim 8, wherein resource allocation for the UL data transmission without the UL transmission command is provided by RRC.

### Claim 12 (depends on 8)
