Abstract

A location registration method of a terminal in a mobile communication system is provided. The method transmitting a location registration request message to a network, waiting, when a reject message is received from the network in response to the location registration request message, until a radio connection with the network releases completely, and transmitting, when the radio connection is released, a new location registration request message to the network.

Claims (33)

1. A method of a master base station for adding a secondary base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a secondary base station addition request message including a first identifier allocated by the master base station for identifying a terminal by the master base station, security capabilities of the terminal and an aggregated maximum bit rate (AMBR) for the terminal to be used at the secondary base station to the secondary base station; and

receiving a secondary base station addition acknowledge message including a second identifier allocated by the second base station for identifying the terminal by the secondary base station from the secondary base station, if secondary base station addition is admitted by the secondary base station,

wherein the first identifier and the second identifier are used to support dual connectivity for the terminal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the secondary base station addition request message includes information on a bearer to be served.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the fifth information on the bearer includes bearer identifier, information indicating if the bearer is proposed for forwarding, uplink general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel end point information or bearer quality of service (QoS) parameter.

4. A method of a secondary base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a secondary base station addition request message including a first identifier allocated by the master base station for identifying a terminal by the master base station, security capabilities of the terminal and an aggregated maximum bit rate (AMBR) for the terminal to be used at the secondary base station from a master base station; and

transmitting a secondary base station addition acknowledge message including a second identifier allocated by the second base station for identifying the terminal by the secondary base station to the master base station, if secondary base station addition is admitted by the secondary base station,

wherein the first identifier and the second identifier are used to support dual connectivity for the terminal.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the secondary base station addition request message includes information on a bearer to be served.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the information on the bearer includes bearer identifier, information indicating if the bearer is proposed for forwarding, uplink general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel end point information or bearer quality of service (QoS) parameter.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

scheduling bearers served to the terminal based on the AMBR.

8. A master base station for adding a secondary base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal;

a controller configured to:

transmit a secondary base station addition request message including a first identifier allocated by the master base station for identifying a terminal by the master base station, security capabilities of the terminal and an aggregated maximum bit rate (AMBR) for the terminal to be used at the secondary base station to the secondary base station, and

receive a secondary base station addition acknowledge message including a second identifier allocated by the second base station for identifying the terminal by the secondary base station from the secondary base station, if secondary base station addition is admitted by the secondary base station,

wherein the first identifier and the second identifier are used to support dual connectivity for the terminal.

9. The master base station of claim 8 , wherein the secondary base station addition request message includes information on a bearer to be served.

10. The master base station of claim 9 , wherein the information on the bearer includes bearer identifier, information indicating if the bearer is proposed for forwarding, uplink general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel end point information or bearer quality of service (QoS) parameter.

11. The master base station of claim 9 , wherein the AMBR is used for scheduling bearers served to the terminal by the secondary base station.

12. A secondary base station in communication system, the secondary base station comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and

a controller configured to:

receive a secondary base station addition request message including a first identifier allocated by the master base station for identifying a terminal by the master base station, security capabilities of the terminal and an aggregated maximum bit rate (AMBR) for the terminal to be used at the secondary base station from a master base station, and

transmit a secondary base station addition acknowledge message including a second identifier allocated by the second base station for identifying the terminal by the secondary base station to the master base station, if secondary base station addition is admitted by the secondary base station,

wherein the first identifier and the second identifier are used to support dual connectivity for the terminal.

13. The secondary base station of claim 12 , wherein the secondary base station addition request message includes information on a bearer to be served.

14. The secondary base station of claim 13 , wherein the information on the bearer includes bearer identifier, information indicating if the bearer is proposed for forwarding, uplink general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel end point information or bearer quality of service (QoS) parameter.

15. The secondary base station of claim 13 , wherein the controller is further configured to schedule bearers served to the terminal based on the AMBR.

16. The method of claim 2 , wherein the AMBR is used for scheduling bearers served to the terminal by the secondary base station.
