Abstract

A mobile communication system according to the present invention includes: a step A in which a radio base station eNB notifies a mobile station UE of a predetermined range; a step B in which the mobile station UE receives an uplink scheduling grant (uplink scheduling) including CB-RNTI (predetermined identification information that is not identification information of a designated mobile station), within the notified predetermined range; and a step C in which the mobile station UE transmits an uplink data signal, by using a shared uplink resource designated by the uplink scheduling grant, to the radio base station eNB.

Claims (9)

1. A mobile communication method comprising:

a step A in which a radio base station notifies a mobile station of a predetermined range;

a step B in which the mobile station receives an uplink scheduling signal containing predetermined identification information within the notified predetermined range, the predetermined identification information not being identification information of a designated mobile station; and

a step C in which the mobile station transmits an uplink data signal to the radio base station from, by using a shared uplink resource designated by the uplink scheduling signal;

wherein in the step A, the radio base station notifies one of a range of a subframe, a search space in a physical downlink control channel, and a range of the predetermined identification information as the predetermined range.

2. A mobile station comprising:

a reception unit configured to receive an uplink scheduling signal containing predetermined identification information within a predetermined range notified from a radio base station, the predetermined identification information not being identification information of a designated mobile station; and

a transmission unit configured to transmit an uplink data signal to the radio base station, by using a shared uplink resource designated by the uplink scheduling signal;
