Mobile station, reconnection request method, base station, and reconnection request processing method
A mobile station for performing communication using component carriers belonging to different base stations includes a reconnection determination unit configured to determine a trigger to initiate a reconnection procedure; a reconnection request unit configured to generate a reconnection request using at least one of information about a primary cell and information about a secondary cell; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the reconnection request.
1. A terminal comprising:
a transceiver that communicates with a first base station that is a base station of a primary cell and a second base station that is a base station of a secondary cell according to dual connectivity; and
a processor that:
when an integrity failure occurs, generates a re-establishment request using information that includes an identifier of the primary cell, an identifier of the terminal in the primary cell, and security information,
wherein the transceiver transmits the re-establishment request to the first base station, if it is determined that the terminal is to be connected to the first base station based on quality measurement.
2. A second base station comprising:
a receiver that receives, from a terminal that communicates with a first base station that is a base station of a primary cell and the second base station that is a base station of a secondary cell according to dual connectivity, a re-establishment request that is triggered by occurrence of an integrity failure; and
a transmitter that forwards the received re-establishment request to the first base station, if it is determined that the terminal is to be connected to the first base station based on quality measurement.
3. The second base station as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising:
a memory that stores first information that includes an identifier of the primary cell, an identifier of the terminal in the primary cell, and security information,
wherein the transmitter forwards the received re-establishment request to the first base station when second information included in the received re-establishment request matches the first information.
4. A communication method in a terminal, comprising:
communicating with a first base station that is a base station of a primary cell and a second base station that is a base station of a secondary cell according to dual connectivity;
when an integrity failure occurs, generating a re-establishment request using information that includes an identifier of the primary cell, an identifier of the terminal in the primary cell, and security information; and
transmitting the re-establishment request to the first base station, if it is determined that the terminal is to be connected to the first base station based on quality measurement.
5. A first base station that is a base station of a primary cell, comprising:
a transceiver that communicates with a terminal together with a second base station that is a base station of a secondary cell according to dual connectivity;
wherein when an integrity failure occurs, the transceiver receives a re-establishment request from the terminal, if it is determined that the terminal is to be connected to the first base station based on quality measurement, and
wherein the re-establishment request is generated using information that includes an identifier of the primary cell, an identifier of the terminal in the primary cell, and security information.
6. A system comprising a first base station that is a base station of a primary cell and a terminal:
the terminal comprising:
a first transceiver that communicates with the first base station and a second base station that is a base station of a secondary cell according to dual connectivity; and
a processor that:
when an integrity failure occurs, generates a re-establishment request using information that includes an identifier of the primary cell, an identifier of the terminal in the primary cell, and security information,
wherein the first transceiver transmits the re-establishment request to the first base station, if it is determined that the terminal is to be connected to the first base station based on quality measurement; and
the first base station comprising:
a second transceiver that receives the re-establishment request from the terminal.
