Abstract

A communication control method according to one embodiment is used in a mobile communication system. The communication control method comprises a step A of predicting, by a UE, a radio condition within a second period after connection between the UE and a eNB is established, in a first period for which the connection is not established, and a step B of performing, by the UE, a random access procedure for establishing the connection. The step B includes a step of performing notification of information on the predicted radio condition from the UE to the eNB in the random access procedure. The information is used, by the eNB, for controlling communication with the UE.

Claims (16)

1. A method used in a user equipment, comprising:

receiving configuration information configuring the user equipment to perform CQI reporting, and

performing a random access procedure with a base station,

wherein the performing the random access procedure includes:

receiving a random access response message from the base station, and

in response to receiving the random access response message, transmitting a Msg 3 message to the base station,

the transmitted Msg 3 message includes, in response to receiving the configuration information, a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) value of downlink, and

the CQI value is determined based on a mapping table indicating a correspondence between a reception level of a downlink signal and the CQI value.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the mapping table is preconfigured in the user equipment.

3. A user equipment comprising:

a controller configured to perform a random access procedure with a base station, wherein the controller is configured to

receive configuration information configuring the user equipment to perform CQI reporting, and

in the random access procedure, receive a random access response message from the base station, and

in response to receiving the random access response message, transmit a Msg 3 message to the base station,

the transmitted Msg 3 message includes, in response to receiving the configuration information, a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) value of downlink, and

the CQI value is determined based on a mapping table indicating a correspondence between a reception level of a downlink signal and the CQI value.
