Radio communication terminal, radio communication base station device, and radio communication method
A radio communication terminal, a radio communication base station device, and radio communication method enabling lightening the paging load in a mobile communication system including macro cells and femto cells. A reception level measuring section ( 144 ) of a UE ( 104 ) measures the reception level of a femto cell. If a judging section ( 146 ) judges that the measured reception level is over a level which is the sum of a threshold and an offset value, the judging section ( 146 ) requests an MME ( 101 ) to change a multi TA registration to a single TA registration and carries out a change to one tracking area registration.
1. A radio communication terminal apparatus comprising:
a determining section that determines whether or not a currently connecting radio communication base station apparatus is a femto cell base station; and
a radio transmitting/receiving section that transmits a position management area update request signal that requests a single tracking area registration when the currently connecting radio communication base station apparatus is determined to be the femto cell base station and a first call connection request signal is transmitted and transmits a position management area update request signal that requests a multi-tracking area registration when the currently connecting radio communication base station is determined not to be the femto cell base station.
2. The radio communication terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the radio transmitting/receiving section transmits the position management area update request signal included in a call connection request signal.
3. The radio communication terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a reception level measuring section that measures a reception level of a signal transmitted from a radio communication base station apparatus,
wherein the radio transmitting/receiving section transmits the position management area update request signal according to the measured reception level.
