Abstract

A multicarrier-based data transmission method and an apparatus for use in a mobile communication system are provided. A Radio Network Temporary Identity (RNTI) reception method of a terminal in a wireless communication system supporting inter-evolved Node B (eNB) carrier aggregation includes receiving cell information on at least one activated cell under control of an eNB, configuring first and second RNTIs allocated by the eNB, monitoring the at least one activated cell for the first RNTI, and monitoring a primary cell among the at least one activated cell for the second RNTI.

receive, from the master base station, a first control message including a first cell-radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) for a master cell group (MCG) associated with the master base station and a first RNTI for a power control of a physical uplink channel for the MCG,

receive, from the master base station, a second control message including a second C-RNTI for a secondary cell group (SCG) associated with the secondary base station and a second RNTI for a power control of a physical uplink channel for the SCG,

monitor a cell of the MCG based on the first C-RNTI for the MCG,

monitor a cell of the SCG based on the second C-RNTI for the SCG,

monitor a primary cell of the MCG based on the first RNTI for the power control of the physical uplink channel for the MCG, and

monitor a primary cell of the SCG based on the second RNTI for the power control of the physical uplink channel for the SCG.

7. The terminal of claim 6 ,

wherein the first control message includes information for configuring the MCG for the terminal, and

wherein the second control message includes information for configuring the SCG for the terminal.

8. The terminal of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to:

identify a RNTI for a paging, and

monitor the primary cell of the MCG based on the RNTI for the paging.

9. The terminal of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to:

identify a RNTI for a paging, and

monitor the primary cell of the MCG based on the RNTI for the paging.

10. The terminal of claim 6 ,

wherein the first RNTI for the power control of the physical uplink channel comprises a RNTI for a power control of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for the MCG and a RNTI for a power control of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) for the MCG, and

wherein the second RNTI for the power control of the physical uplink control channel comprises a RNTI for a power control of a PUCCH for the SCG and a RNTI for a power control of a PUSCH for the SCG.
