Master base station, mobile station, and communication control method

1. A communication control method, comprising:

transmitting, by a mobile station configured to transmit uplink data of a split bearer by using a first radio base station and a second radio base station, first data belonging to the split bearer to the first radio base station and second data belonging to the split bearer to the second radio base station;

transferring, by the second radio base station, the second data to the first radio base station;

performing, by the first radio base station, order control on the first data and the second data; and

notifying the second radio base station, by the first radio base station, of a permissive processing time of the order control, wherein

the mobile station further establishes a bearer different from the split bearer with at least one of the first radio base station and the second radio base station,

the mobile station has a first PDCP function associated with the split bearer and a second PDCP function of the mobile station associated with the different bearer, and

the communication control method further comprises:

getting, by the first PDCP function, an uplink data amount stored in a transmission buffer region of the second PDCP function from the second PDCP function; and

determining, by the first PDCP function, a transmission ratio on the basis of the uplink data amount got from the second PDCP function.

2. A communication control method, comprising:

transmitting, by a mobile station configured to transmit uplink data of a split bearer by using a first radio base station and a second radio base station, first data belonging to the split bearer to the first radio base station and second data belonging to the split bearer to the second radio base station;

transferring, by the second radio base station, the second data to the first radio base station;

performing, by the first radio base station, order control on the first data and the second data;

deciding, by the mobile station, a transmission ratio of the first data and the second data; and

transmitting, by the mobile station, the first data and the second data, according to the transmission ratio, wherein

the mobile station further establishes a bearer different from the split bearer with at least one of the first radio base station and the second radio base station,

the mobile station has a first PDCP function associated with the split bearer, a first MAC function associated with the first radio base station, and a second MAC function associated with the second radio base station, and

the communication control method further comprises:

getting, by the first PDCP function, an uplink data amount stored in a transmission buffer region toward the first radio base station and an uplink data amount stored in a transmission buffer region toward the second radio base station, from the first MAC function and the second MAC function; and

determining, by the first PDCP function, the transmission ratio on the basis of the uplink data amount got from the first MAC function and the second MAC function.

3. The communication control method according to claim 2 , wherein

the mobile station further having an RRC function associated with the split bearer, wherein

the communication control method further comprises:

reporting, by the first MAC function and the second MAC function, the uplink data amount stored in the transmission buffer region toward the first radio base station and the uplink data amount stored in the transmission buffer region toward the second radio base station, to the RRC function; and

getting, by the first PDCP function, the uplink data amount stored in the transmission buffer region toward the first radio base station and the uplink data amount stored in the transmission buffer region toward the second radio base station, from the RRC function.

4. The communication control method according to claim 2 , wherein

the mobile station has a transmission buffer region associated with a split bearer, wherein

the communication control method further comprises:

a step of reporting, by the mobile station, amounts of the first data and the second data stored in the transmission buffer region associated with the split bearer, to the first radio base station or the second radio base station; and

a step of designating, by the first radio base station or the second radio base station, a transmission ratio between the first data and the second data, to the mobile station.

5. The communication control method according to claim 2 , wherein

the mobile station has a transmission timer for counting a time of the uplink data stored in a transmission buffer region,

the communication control method further comprising:

a step of changing, by the mobile station, a destination of the uplink data remaining in the transmission buffer region from one base station to another base station, when the transmission timer is expired.

6. The communication control method according to claim 5 , wherein

the mobile station includes a discard timer for counting a time of store in the transmission buffer region,

the mobile station discards the uplink data remaining in the transmission buffer region, when the discard timer is expired.

7. The communication control method according to claim 2 , wherein

the mobile station has a first timer for counting a time of the uplink data stored in the transmission buffer region toward the first base station, and a second timer for counting a time of the uplink data stored in the transmission buffer region toward the second base station, and

when one timer of the first timer and the second timer is expired while the other timer is not expired, the mobile station changes a destination of the uplink data remaining in the transmission buffer region to the other base station corresponding to the other timer.
