Abstract

As a random access channel (RACH), two types of RACHs, a synchronous RACH and an asynchronous RACH are prepared, condition of a mobile station is classified depending on whether there is temporal synchronization in the mobile station and whether a resource is allocated, and depending on each case, any one of the synchronous RACH/the asynchronous RACH/uplink shared control channel (USCCH) is adaptively selected to carry out connection processing.

Claims (10)

1. A processing method in which, as a channel used to allow a mobile station to request communication resource assignment information for transmission data to a base station, a control channel in an uplink line from the mobile station to the base station and a random access channel with a guard time are provided and, within a period during which correction information acquired by the mobile station from the base station in order to correct non-synchronization of a transmission timing in the uplink line is effective, the mobile station requests the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data to the base station,

wherein the period includes a status where a communication resource for transmitting the control channel in the uplink line is assigned to the mobile station and a status where a communication resource for transmitting the control channel in the uplink line is not assigned to the mobile station, and

the mobile station is configured to:

when the communication resource for transmitting the control channel in the uplink line is assigned to the mobile station within the period, use the control channel in the uplink line to request the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data of the mobile station to the base station, and

when the communication resource for transmitting the control channel in the uplink line is not assigned to the mobile station within the period, use the random access channel with the guard time to request the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data of the mobile station to the base station.

2. A processing method in which, as a channel used to allow a mobile station to request communication resource assignment information for transmission data to a base station, a control channel in an uplink line from the mobile station to the base station and a random access channel with a guard time are provided and, within a period during which the communication resource for transmitting the control channel in the uplink line is assigned, the mobile station requests the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data to the base station,

wherein the period includes a status where correction information acquired by the mobile station from the base station in order to correct non-synchronization of a transmission timing in the uplink line is effective and a status where correction information acquired by the mobile station from the base station in order to correct non-synchronization of a transmission timing in the uplink line is not effective, and

the mobile station is configured to:

when the correction information acquired by the mobile station from the base station in order to correct the non-synchronization of the transmission timing in the uplink line is effective within the period, use the control channel in the uplink line to request the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data of the mobile station to the base station, and

when the correction information acquired by the mobile station from the base station in order to correct the non-synchronization of the transmission timing in the uplink line is not effective within the period, use the random access channel with the guard time to request the communication resource assignment information for the transmission data of the mobile station to the base station.
