Abstract
Provided are a method and apparatus for reporting power headroom in a mobile communication system supporting carrier aggregation. A user equipment (UE) determines the maximum transmit power for each carrier and the maximum UE transmit power, and sends a power headroom report that contains power headroom for each carrier computed based on the maximum transmit power for the carrier and the maximum UE transmit power to a corresponding base station (ENB).
Claims8
A method of performed by a terminal operation in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a measurement configuration message from a first base station controlling a first cell using a first frequency band;
- measuring a first reference signal of the first cell from the first base station;
- measuring a second reference signal of a second cell using a second frequency band from a second base station based on the measurement configuration message;
- and
- transmitting a measurement report comprising including a measurement result of the first reference signal and a measurement result of the second reference signal to the first base station,
- wherein the measurement configuration message includes pattern first information comprising an indication of on which subframes the second reference signal is to be transmitted in, second information on a physical cell identity of the second cell, and offset third information on an offset for the second reference signal, and
- wherein the first reference signal is transmitted in all subframes, and the second reference signal is transmitted in subframes identified based on the pattern first information included in the measurement configuration message.
