BACKGROUND OF THE TECHNIQUE [002] Mobile communication systems designed to provide subscribers with voice communication services on the move. With the rapid advancement of technologies, mobile communication systems have evolved to provide high-speed data communication services in addition to voice communication services. [003] Recently, as one of the next generation mobile communication system, Long Term Evolution (LTE) is being standardized by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). LTE is a technology designed to provide high-speed packet-based communication of up to 100 Mbps and has been standardized almost today.

MODE FOR THE INVENTION [021] The detailed description of the known functions and structures incorporated herein may be omitted to avoid obscuring the object of the present invention. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings in detail. Before explaining the present invention, LTE system and carrier aggregation are briefly described. [022] Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating the architecture of an LTE system to which the present invention is applied. [023] Referring to Figure 1, the radio access network of the mobile communication system includes evolved Nodes B (eNBs) 105, 110, 115 and 120, a Mobility Management Entity (MME) 125, and a Gateway Serving (S-GW) 130. User Equipment (hereinafter referred to as UE) 135 connects to an external network through eNBs 105, 110, 115, and 120 and the S-GW 130. [024] In Figure 1, the eNBs 105, 110, 115 and 120 correspond to the legacy Bs nodes of the UMTS system. The eNBs 105, 110, 115, and 120 allow the UE to establish a radio link and are responsible for complicated functions compared to legacy node B. In the LTE system, all user traffic including real-time services like Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is provided over a shared channel and therefore there is a need for a device that is located on the eNB to program data based on on state information such as UE buffer conditions, power free space state, and channel state. Typically, an eNB controls a plurality of cells. In order to guarantee the data rate up to 100Mbps, the LTE system adopts Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) as a radio access technology. Furthermore, the LTE system adopts Adaptive Modulation and Coding (AMC) to determine the modulation scheme and channel coding rate in adaptation to the UE channel condition. The S-GW 130 is an entity to provide data carriers in order to establish and release data carriers under the control of the MME 125. MME 125 is responsible for various control functions and is connected to a plurality of eNBs 105, 110, 115 , and 120. [025] Figure 2 is a diagram illustrating a protocol stack of the LTE system to which the present invention is applied. [026] Referring to Figure 2, the LTE system protocol stack includes Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) 205 and 240, Radio Link Control (RLC) 210 and 235, Medium Access Control (MAC) ) 215 and 230, and Physical (PHY) 220 and 225. The PDCP 205 and 240 are responsible for IP header compression/decompression, and the RLC 210 and 235 are responsible for segmenting the PDCP Protocol Data Unit (PDU) into appropriately sized segments for Auto-Repeat Request (ARQ) operation. MAC 215 and 230 are responsible for establishing connection with a plurality of RLC entities in order to multiplex RLC PDUs into MAC PDUs and demultiplex MAC PDUs into RLC PDUs. PHY 220 and 225 perform channel coding on the MAC PDU and modulate the MAC PDU into OFDM symbols for transmitting over the radio channel or perform channel demodulation and decoding on the received OFDM symbols and deliver the decoded data to the upper layer. [027] A description is given of MBMS briefly below. [028] The MBMS server 305 generates MBMS data for the eNBs 310, 315, 320, 325, and 330 that participated in MBMS transmission. The eNBs store the data received from the MBMS server and transmit the data at a predetermined time. Since the same data is transmitted simultaneously, this gives a signal power amplification effect, and UEs receiving the same signal from multiple eNBs can experience the high quality of received signal compared to the case of receiving the signal. from an eNB. In order for the eNBs to transmit the same signal, there must be little chance as follows. [029] First, the eNBs have to receive the same data. Second, eNBs have to generate the same data from the same data. Finally, the same data has to be transmitted over the same transmission resource simultaneously. [030] Neighboring eNBs transmit the same MBMS data, and some MBMS services are likely to be provided in a certain area. The area where a particular MBMS service is provided (or a set of cells or frequencies) is referred to as the MBMS Service Area. [031] It is preferable for the UE in idle mode to camp on a frequency providing the MBMS service. This is because the UE camped on a non-MBMS frequency has to monitor the paging channel of the serving frequency when receiving MBMS service on the MBMS frequency. [032] In order for the idle-mode UE that is interested in or receiving MBMS service currently operate on the frequency providing MBMS (hereinafter referred to as MBMS frequency), the UE interested in MBMS has an ability to adjust the reselection priority of MBMS frequency cell. The UE operation relating to this is represented in Figure 4. [033] Figure 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of adjusting cell reselection priority of MBMS frequency in consideration of service start time of MBMS of interest and Service Area ID (SAI) according to an embodiment of the present invention. [034] The UE acquires the service guide information including various information regarding the MBMS and checks the information in the MBMS service of interest to the UE in step 405. The service guide information is provided by the MBMS service provider, server MBMS service provider and MBMS service operator and may include the following information per MBMS service: - Service Area Id (SAI): Identifier indicating the area in which the corresponding MBMS service is provided. The SAI can be provided in the cell's system information, and if the SAI of the MBMS service of interest to the UE matches the SAI broadcast in the system information, the UE determines that the corresponding MBMS service is provided in the corresponding cell ( or on the corresponding frequency). - Frequency: Frequency at which the corresponding MBMS service is provided. - Service start time: Time when the service starts. [035] Later, the UE determines if the MBMS service of interest is in progress in step 410. If the MBMS service of interest is in progress, i.e. if the current time is later than the start time the procedure goes to step 420. If the MBMS service of interest has not been started yet, i.e. if the current time is earlier than the service start time, the procedure goes to step 415. In step 415, the UE waits for the service start time of the MBMS of interest, and the procedure goes to step 420 at or just before the service start time. [036] The UE determines whether the current serving cell broadcasts SAI information at step 420. If no SAI information is broadcast, the procedure goes to step 425 and otherwise to step 430. [037] The SAI information is provided in a System Information Block (SIB) which can include the SAIs of neighboring frequencies as well as the current cell. Typically, the SAI is provided by frequency and therefore the serving cell SAI has the same meaning as the serving frequency SAI. For example, if there is a certain serving cell (frequency f1) and neighboring frequencies f2, f3 and f4 where f1 and f2 are used for MBMS, the SAIs of the serving cell and f2 can be transmitted in a given SIB. [038] Assuming that the SIB carrying the SAI information is SIB X, the UE checks the SIB X of the serving cell to determine if the SAI information is broadcast. If SIB X of the serving cell is determined to carry the SAI information, the procedure proceeds to step 430. If the SIB X of the serving cell is determined to carry no SAI information or if no SIB X is broadcast, the procedure goes to step 425. [039] The reason why the network provides the SAI information is to indicate whether the MBMS service of interest to UE is provided in the current area. For example, if the UE's MBMS service of interest is provided in the Capital area and if the UE outside the Capital area may not receive the SAI of the MBMS service of interest in the current area. In this way, the UE determines whether the MBMS service of interest is provided in the current area based on the presence/absence of the SAI of the MBMS service of interest and, if not the MBMS service area, suspends further operation to receive the service. of MBMS, for example, adjustment of cell reselection priority. [040] Depending on the eNB version, the SAI information may or may not be provided. If the eNB is an eNB version-10 or earlier, this means that the operation related to the SAI is not performed and thus the eNB does not broadcast the SAI information. That is, SIB x is not broadcast. If the eNB is version-11 or later version eNB, it broadcasts SAI information. That is, if the service cell does not provide SAI information, it is impossible to determine whether MBMS service is provided in the current area based on the SAI. At this time, if the MBMS service frequency exists in the current area, the UE considers that the MBMS service is provided in the corresponding area and performs the following operation. [041] If it is determined that the MBMS service frequency of interest is present in step 425, the UE sets the cell reselection priority of the frequency to the highest value in step 429. If the MBMS service of interest is not provided at a predetermined time once the MBMS service frequency cell of interest has been selected, the UE can recover the cell reselection priority to the original value. If it is determined that the MBMS serving frequency of interest is not present in step 425, the UE waits until the serving cell changes or system information is changed or reacquired in step 427. [042] If the MBMS service frequency of interest is present, this means that the serving frequency or neighboring frequency is the MBMS service frequency of interest. The neighbor frequency is indicated in the service cell's system information. [043] Cell reselection priority is the priority allocated by frequency, and the UE selects the cell operating on the frequency having the highest priority with priority. For example, if the channel quality of the frequency having the highest priority is better than a predetermined threshold, the cell operating on the frequency having the highest priority is likely to be selected even though the channel quality of the cell operating on another frequency be better. Cell reselection priority can be provided in the system information or sent from the eNB to the UE via a dedicated RRC message releasing the RRC connection. [044] If it is determined that the ASI information is transmitted in step 420, the procedure moves to step 430. In step 430, the UE determines whether the SAI information includes the SAI matching the SAI of MBMS of interest. If the MBMS SAI of interest is present, the procedure goes to step 435 and, if not, if the MBMS SAI of interest is absent, step 437. [045] In step 435, the UE sets the cell reselection priority of the frequency corresponding to the SAI matching the SAI of MBMS (hereinafter referred to as the SAI of interest) to the highest value. If the serving cell's SAI is the SAI of interest, the frequency of the SAI of interest is the frequency serving, and otherwise, if the SAI of the neighboring frequency is the SAI of interest, the frequency of the SAI of interest is the neighboring frequency. . If the MBMS service of interest is not provided within a predetermined time after reselecting the cell from the SAI frequency of interest, the UE restores the cell reselection priority to the original value. The UE waits until the serving cell is changed or system information is changed or reacquired in step 437. [046] Figure 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining whether the UE attempts carrier reconfiguration after unicast carrier has been released due to cell congestion in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. [047] Idle mode UE may transition to connected mode for a certain reason. After transitioning to connected mode to receive the MBMS service, the UE has to provide the eNB with the necessary information for the MBMS service. In the present invention, the following information (hereinafter, MBMS information) is provided to the eNB: - frequency carrying MBMS service of interest - information indicating MBMS service priorities and unicast - information indicating whether current MBMS service is received by frequency - sum of the data rates of MBMS services that the UE is receiving or intends to receive [048] The eNB triggers the handover of the UE to a suitable frequency using the above information such that the UE receives the MBMS service. From the cell's point of view, the MBMS service can restrict the unicast service. Using a portion of the limited radio resource for the MBMS service decreases the amount of radio resources for the unicast service and therefore increases the probability of cell congestion. If the cell congestion situation is defined as insufficient QoS for unicast service for the large number of UEs, it is preferable to handover the UE control to another cell from the eNB's point of view. [049] If it is more important for a UE to receive the MBMS service than the unicast service, it is preferred to release the bearer from the unicast service instead of performing the handover of the UE. According to one embodiment, the UE reports the priorities of the MBMS service and unicast service in order for the eNB to operate in such a way. By discriminating between the situation of receiving the MBMS service and the situation of being only interested in receiving the MBMS service, that is, by means of a report if the MBMS service is received by frequency, the eNB is able to manage radio more efficiently. [050] In an alternative case, it is also possible to consider the start time of the MBMS service of interest by reporting the frequency of provision of the MBMS service of interest. That is, the UE can configure the MBMS service delivery frequency information of interest as follows. [051] The UE reports the service frequency of MBMS of interest only when the MBMS start time has passed or will pass shortly before transitioning to connected mode. In this case, since the UE is likely to be or begin receiving MBMS service at the reported frequency, it is not necessary to inform whether MBMS service is being received. [052] In the case where the eNB has released the unicast bearer of the UE receiving MBMS service due to cell congestion, it is preferred for the UE to refrain from attempting to recover the unicast bearer. In the present invention, when transmitting the control message instructing carrier release to the UE, the eNB notifies the UE that the reason for the carrier release is cell congestion caused by the MBMS service such that the UE controls the procedure. of unicast carrier restoration based on the carrier release ratio. [053] Referring to Figure 5, the UE starts an RRC connection setup procedure in step 505. The RRC connection setup procedure is done in such a way that the UE sends an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message to the eNB, the eNB sends the UE a CONNECTION SETUP message, and the UE sends the eNB an RRC CONNECTION SETUP COMPLETE message. [054] The RRC connection configuration procedure starts with the request for connection configuration from the RRC upper layer. The upper layer can ask for RRC connection configuration to perform Tracking Area Update (TAU) or unicast carrier configuration. If the RRC connection setup completes, the upper layer sends the MME a TAU message or a bearer setup request message. [055] The UE transmits the complete RRC connection setup message including the MBMS information in step 510. If the MBMS service start time of interest has passed or arrives immediately, the UE includes the MBMS service of interest by providing frequency information in the MBMS information. The MBMS information includes "sum of the data rates of the MBMS services that the UE is receiving or intending to receive" which is the information necessary to prevent the sum of the data rates of the unicast service provided by the eNB from exceeding the processing capacity of the MBMS. HUH. [056] Once the RRC connection setup has been completed, the UE performs normal operations with the eNB, i.e. receives unicast service over the established carrier, and measures and handover according to the eNB's instructions. As described above, if the serving cell of the UE experiences cell congestion, the eNB can release the carrier unicast service having lower priority than the MBMS service. At this time, the eNB can send the UE a control message including an indicator indicating the carrier to be released. Thereafter, the UE receives the control message instructing to release the radio data carrier in step 515. This control message may be the CONNECTION RECONFIGURATION RRC message. Radio data carrier release may result from cell congestion or normal radio resource management. [057] The UE determines whether the control message includes flag 1 in step 520. If flag 1 is not included, the procedure goes to step 525, if not, flag 1 is included, step 530. [058] The RRC device determines whether the control message includes a configuration complete indicator and, if not, transfers the following information to the upper layer in step 525: - Fact that DRB released. - Upper layer carrier identifier (Enhanced Packet System (EPS) carrier) connected to released DRB) [059] The configuration complete indicator is the indicator indicating that the eNB instructs the UE to perform the next operation. - Release all currently configured DRBs and reconfigure DRBs according to the configuration information included in the control message. [060] The reason to perform the full configuration is because when the UE performs handover to a previous version eNB the new eNB may not understand the current DRB configuration of the UE. [061] If the configuration complete indicator is included, the UE notifies the upper layer of information about the carrier that is not indicated by the reconfiguration information included in the control message between the released carriers. If reconfiguration information on the released carrier is included in the control message, the above information is not delivered to the upper layer. [062] If it is detected that the DRB for a certain EPS bearer providing the unicast service has been released, the upper layer can ask for EPS bearer reconfiguration according to the user's preference or initiate the release request procedure EPS carrier. [063] In step 530, the UE attempts to re-establish the EPS carrier from the released DRB only when the following condition is met: - Current cell congestion is resolved. - The unicast service priority is changed to be higher than the MBMS service. [064] Information about whether the current cell congestion has been resolved is broadcast in a given SIB. For example, if the Access Class Bus (ACB, see TS36.331) information from SIB 2 is broadcast, this indicates that cell congestion continues, and otherwise if the ACB is not broadcast anymore), this indicates that the jam has been cleared. [065] In step 530, the UE may consider the current cell congestion situation and the unicast service and MBMS service priorities in determining whether to establish new EPS bearer later. That is, if the MBMS service is received with priority, the UE does not initiate the EPS bearer configuration request procedure in the cell congestion situation. [066] Figure 6 is a flowchart illustrating a method for a UE not interested in receiving MBMS to adjust the cell reselection priority of a cell providing MBMS in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. [067] It is preferable that the UE not interested in MBMS service does not camp in the cell that is in a congested state and provides MBMS service. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the UE which is not interested in receiving MBMS sets the cell reselection priority of the frequency of the corresponding cell to fall to the probability of camping in the corresponding cell. [068] Referring to Figure 6, the UE that is not interested in receiving MBMS initiates cell reselection procedure at step 650. The cell reselection procedure is to compare channel qualities of neighboring cells and serving to determine whether to camp on the neighboring cell fulfilling a predetermined condition. The cell that meets a predetermined channel quality condition and is not preventing access is found, the UE fields over the corresponding cell in step 610. Thereafter, the UE receives the system information from the new cell to acquire the information. necessary for communication in the new cell. The UE also monitors the paging channel of the new cell. [069] The UE determines whether the cell is in the congestion state based on the system information in step 615. For example, if the ACB information is broadcast, this means that the cell is in the congestion state. If it is determined that the cell is not in the congestion state, the UE maintains the cell reselection priority of the current serving frequency without adjustment in step 625. [070] If the cell is determined to be in the congestion state at step 615, the UE determines whether MBMS-related system information is broadcast in the cell at step 620. MBMS-related system information may include the information on the channel required to receive MBMS service, ie MBMS Control Channel (MCCH) configuration information. It can be any information related to SAI. [071] If it is determined that MBMS-related system information is broadcast in step 620, the UE is aware that the cell provides the MBMS service in the congestion state. In this case, the UE sets the cell reselection priority of the current frequency, i.e., serving frequency, to a predetermined value for a predetermined duration in step 630. The predetermined value may be the smallest value. The default duration may be sufficient time, for example 300 seconds. By adjusting the cell reselection priority in this way, the UE is able to lower the probability of camping in the cell of the corresponding frequency for the predetermined duration. [072] Figure 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for the UE that is interested in receiving MBMS to determine whether to transmit an access notification message in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. [073] If the UE as a member of a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) approaches a CSG cell, it transmits a control message called a proximity notification message (Proximity Indication) to the eNB to perform handover to the cell of CSG. The control message includes the CSG cell frequency information, and the eNB can configure frequency measurement for the UE to initiate handover from the UE to the CSG cell. [074] If the CSG member UE that is receiving or intends to receive the MBMS service performs handover to the CSG cell, it may not receive the MBMS service. Therefore, it is preferable that the UE that gives the highest receive priority to the MBMS service compared to the unicast service does not initiate the handover procedure to the CSG cell even though it approaches the CSG cell. UE operation is described with reference to Figure 7. [075] The UE performs its approach to the CSG cell area in step 705. For example, the UE memorizes the identifier of the macrocell overlapped with its CSG cell and, if it enters the macrocell, it realizes that it has approached the area of CSG cell. Furthermore, it is possible to determine its approximation to the CSG cell area using the RF fingerprint information of the CSG cell (channel quality information from neighboring cells). [076] Thereafter, the UE determines whether it is interested in receiving MBMS service in step 710, and if not, the procedure goes to step 715 and otherwise to step 720. [077] In step 715, the UE determines if the proximity indication is configured and, if so, initiates a procedure of moving to its CSG cell in step 723, for example, generates the proximity indication for the eNB. If no proximity indication is configured, the procedure goes to step 725. [078] The eNB notifies the UE if the proximity indication is configured. For example, if the eNB notifies the UE of the proximity indication configuration in or after the RRC connection configuration procedure, this means that the proximity indication is configured for the corresponding cell. Unless the eNB notifies the UE of the proximity indication configuration explicitly, this means that the proximity indication is not configured for the corresponding cell. The reason for this operation is to prevent the UE from transmitting the proximity indication to the eNB which does not support proximity indication because proximity indication may or may not be supported depending on the software version of the eNB. [079] The UE determines whether the MBMS service has priority compared to the unicast service in step 720. Or, the UE determines whether the MBMS service is reported to have priority compared to the unicast service in receiving MBMS service current or later with no report of a change in priority since. If the MBMS service is determined to have priority over the unicast service, the procedure goes to step 715. [080] If it is determined that the MBMS service has priority over the unicast service, the UE does not move to the CSG cell and the procedure goes to step 725. [081] In step 725, the UE suspends the procedure of moving to the CSG cell until the following condition is met: - The UE remains in the area of the CSG cell, the proximity indication report is set, and the priority of the unicast service is changed to be higher than that of MBMS service. [082] In order to increase the data rate of the UE, a carrier aggregation of aggregating a plurality of cells serving a UE is introduced. A description is given of carrier aggregation briefly with reference to Figure 8. [083] Figure 8 is a diagram illustrating carrier aggregation. [084] Referring to Figure 8, an eNB transmits and receives signals over multiple carriers over a plurality of frequency bands. For example, when the eNB 805 transmits signals on carrier 813 with downlink center frequency f1 and carrier 810 with downlink center frequency 815, the UE transmits/receives data using one of the two carriers in the conventional system. However, the UE having carrier aggregation capability can transmit/receive data using a plurality of carriers simultaneously. The eNB 805 allocates more carriers to the UE 830 having carrier aggregation capability in order to increase the data rate of the UE 830. Aggregation of downlink or uplink carriers for transmitting or receiving signals is referred to as carrier aggregation. . [085] Frequently used terms in the following description are explained further below. [086] Assuming the cell is configured with a downlink carrier and an uplink carrier in the conventional concept, carrier aggregation can be interpreted as if the UE communicates data across multiple cells. With the use of carrier aggregation, the peak data rate increases in proportion to the number of aggregated carriers. [087] In the following description, the phrase "the UE receives data via a certain downlink carrier or transmits data via a certain uplink carrier" means transmitting or receiving data via control and communication channels. data provided in a cell corresponding to the center frequencies and frequency bands of the downlink and uplink carriers. Particularly in the present invention, carrier aggregation is expressed in a phrase such as "a plurality of service cells are configured" together with the terms "primary service cell (Pcell)", "secondary service cell (Scell)" and " service cell activated.” These terms have the same meanings as used in the LTE mobile communication system and detailed definitions thereof are specified in TS 36331 and TS 36321. In addition, the terms “timeAlignmentTimer”, “MAC Control Element Activation / Deactivation” and “C-RNTI MAC CE” used in the present invention are specified in TS 36.321. [088] Figure 9 is a flowchart illustrating a method for the self configured with a plurality of cells serving to perform random access in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. [089] euUE configured with a plurality of serving cells can transmit a preamble in the PCell or a SCell in the random access procedure. The random access procedure can be performed for several reasons, and in most cases the UE transmits the preamble in the PCell. In predefined cases (for example, when the eNB has instructed the UE to transmit the preamble in a specific SCell), in the entaneu, the UE transmits the preamble in the SCell. In the case where the eNB intends to check the uplink transmission time on a certain SCell, the eNB can input the UE to perform the random access procedure. [090] In one embodiment of the present provision, the UE performs the random access procedure differently depending on whether the preamble is transmitted in the pCell or the SCell. [091] UE eueration is described with reference to Figure 9. [092] The UE first acquires random access information in step 900. The random access information may include the following: - Maximum number of preamble transmissions (preambleTransMax): Maximum number of preamble transmissions in the UE's random access operation before to initiate a predetermined operation. The default operation may be RRC connection re-establishment. eNB sets the preambleTransMax to a suitable value to prevent the preamble from being transmitted infinitely. - Random Access Response Window Size (ra- ResponseWindowSize): The Random Access Response window is the maximum duration for which the UE that transmitted the preamble waits to receive the Random Access Response (RAR) message. If no RAR is received before the expiration of the random response window, the UE may retransmit the preamble. [093] The UE that does not perform handover after establishing the RRC connection in a given cell is able to acquire the random access information in one of the following ways: - Acquisition from the system information. - Acquisition from a dedicated RRC control message. The dedicated RRC control message can be the RRC Connection Reset message that instructs the DE SCell configuration, but does not command handover. [094] In the following description, random access information acquired through the first method is referred to as random access information 1 and random access information acquired through the second method is referred to as random access information 2. That is, the random access information acquired through the second method is referred to as random access information. UE can have random access information as follows at a certain time point: - First preambleTransMax, First ra-ResponseWindowSize - Second preambleTransMax, second ra-ResponseWindowSize [095] The first preambleTransMax and the first ra-ResponseWindowSize are acquired from the PCell system information, and the second preambleTransMax and the second ra-ResponseWindowSize are given via a predetermined dedicated RRC message. [096] The random access procedure is triggered in step 905. If the data having this priority occurs in the UE or if the eNB instructs to perform random access, the UE triggers the random access procedure. The UE transmits the preamble in a predetermined serving cell in step 910 and determines whether the serving cell in which it transmitted the preamble is PCell or SCell. If it is PCell, the procedure goes to step 920 and, otherwise, if it is SCell, step 925. [097] The UE controls preamble transmission and retransmission by applying the first preambleTransMax and the first ra-ResposneWindowsize at step 920 and by applying the second preambleTransMax and the second ra-ResposneWindowsize at step 925. [098] Controlling the preamble transmission and retransmission process using the preambleTransMax and ra-ResponseWindowSieu has the following meaning. [099] The UE monitors to determine if a valid RAR message is received for the RAR window after transmitting the preamble. If no valid RAR message is received before the RAR window expires, the UE increases the transmit power by the predetermined amount and retransmits the preamble. In the normal case, eNeu receives the preamble transmitted by the UE at any time and transmits the RAR message as it responds. However, the channel condition of the UE may be significantly bad or the eNBeuão may transmit the RAR message to the UE due to preamble congestion to the eNB. In this case, if the number of preamble transmisses reaches preambleTransMax, the UE performs a predetermined bottleneck operation, for example, interrupting preamble transmission or reestablishing RRC connection. Controlling preamble transmission and retransmission means determining a preamble retransmission timing and whether to retransmit preamble by applying preambleTransMax and ra-ResposneWindowSize. [100] The reason for applying the second random access information when the UE transmits the preamble and the SCell at step 925 is to make it possible for the UE to perform random access without acquiring the system information from the SCell. if the UE has to acquire system information in SCell, it has to acquire system information before initiating data communication in SCell, resulting in delay. [101] In step 925, the preamble transmission and retransmission process can be controlled by applying the second preambleTransMax and the first ra-ResponseWindowSize instead of the second preambleTreusMax and the second ra-ResponseWindowSize. [102] The UE then determines whether the random access procedure completed successfully before the number of preamble transmissions reaches the preambleTransMax in step 930. If the random access procedure completed successfully before the number of preamble transmissions reaches the preambleTransMax, the UE terminates the procedure at step 935. If the random access procedure did not complete successfully before the preambletransmit number reaches the preambleTransMax, the UE determines whether the preamble was transmitted in PCell or SCelle at step 940. If the preambleTransMax preamble has been transmitted in the PCell, the UE initiates the reconnection of Reu at step 945. If the preamble has been transmitted in the SCell, the UE stops transmitting the preamble at step 950. [103] If the preamble was transmitted in SCell, the preambleTransMax is determined by applying the flagged preambleTransMax parameter to the corresponding cell while the RAR window size is determined as the value defined for the PCell, that is, the value broadcast through the PCell system information. This is because, although it is preferred to determine the preambleTransMax by applying the state of the cell in which the preamble is transmitted, i.e., although the difference in value can be large depending on the cell in which the preamble is transmitted, the eunelle size of RAR , as the parameter to define the duration for the UE to receive the RAR, there is no big difference between the cells. [104] The UE controls the preamble transmission and RAR reception operations by applying the selected parameters and, if it fails to receive RAR even though the preamble has transmitted as many as preambleTransMax or if the random access procedure has not completed successfully, performs a necessary next operation. The following operation is also defined differently depending on the cell in which the UE transmitted the preamble. If the preamble was transmitted in the PCell and the random access fails before the preamble transmission number reaches the preambleTransMax, the UE determines that there is a significant connection problem with the current PCell and starts the RRC connection reestablishment procedure in step 945 The RRC reset connection procedure is specified in 36331 in detail. [105] If the preamble has been transmitted and if random access fails before the number of preamble transmissions reaches the preambleTransMax, the UE determines that there is a significant connection problem with euell and stops preamble transmission at step 950. In this case, the UE does not perform the RRC connection reestablishment procedure because there is no connection problem on PCell although there is a connection problem with SCell. For reference, if there is a connection problem with PCell, normal communication is impossible despite no connection problem with Scell, but otherwise, it is possible to continue communication through euell. [106] Figure 10 is a block diagram illustrating an acedo UE configuration with an embodiment of the present invention. [107] Referring to Figure 10, the UE according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a transceiver 1005, a controller 1010, a multiplexer/demultiplexer 1015, an RRC controller/processor control message 1030, and layer processors. upper 1020 and 1025. [108] Transceiver 1005 receives data including MBMS and control signals over the downlink channel of a serving cell and transmits control signals and data over the uplink channel. In the case where a plurality of serving cells are configured, transceiver 1005 transmits/receives data and control signals via a plurality of serving cells. [109] The multiplexers/demultiplexers 1015 multiplex the data generated by the upper layer processors 1020 and 1025 and the control message processor 1030 and demultiplex the data received by the transceiver 1005 to deliver the demultiplexed signal to the upper layer processors 1020 and 1025 and the control message processor 1030. [110] Control message processor 1030 is an RRC layer device and processes the control message received from the eNB to take necessary action. For example, if system information is received from the eNB, the control message processor 1030 transfers the related information to the controller. It transfers the cell reselection priority information received from the eNB to the controller. [111] Upper layer processors 1020 and 1025 can be implemented per service. The upper layer processor processes the data generated by the user service as File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and transfers the processed data to the multiplexer/demultiplexer 1015 and processes the data from the multiplexer/demultiplexer 1015 and transfers the processed data to higher layer service applications. The upper layer processor may include RLC layer device, PDCP layer device, and IP layer device. [112] Control unit 1010 verifies the programming command, e.g. uplink guarantees, received by transceiver 1005 and controls transceiver 1005 and multiplexer/demultiplexer 1015 to perform uplink transmission with appropriate transmission capability at the time adequate. The controller can perform the operations proposed in Figures 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9. That is, the controller can adjust the appropriate cell reselection priority and control the carrier reconfiguration procedure and random access procedure. [113] Figure 11 is a block diagram illustrating an eNB configuration in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. [114] Referring to Figure 11, the eNB includes a transceiver 1105, a controller 1110, a multiplexer/demultiplexer 1120, a control message processor/RRC controller 1135, upper layer processors 1125 and 1130, and a programmer 1115 . [115] Transceiver 1105 transmits data and control signals on downlink carriers and receives data and control signals on uplink carriers. In the case where a plurality of carriers are configured, transceiver 1105 transmits and receives data and control signals on the various carriers. [116] Multiplexer/demultiplexer 1120 multiplexes data generated by upper layer processors 1125 and 1130 and control message processor 1135 and demultiplex data received by transceiver 1105 and provides the demultiplexed data to appropriate higher layer processors 1125 and 1130 , the control message processor 1135, and the controller 1110. The control message processor 1135 processes the control message transmitted by the UE to take a necessary operation and generates the control message to be transmitted to the UE for the lower layers. [117] The carrier-implemented upper layer processor 1125 and 1130 processes the data to be transferred to the SGW or other eNB for RLC PDUs and transfers the RLC PDUs to the multiplexer/demultiplexer 1120 or processes the RLC PDUs from the 1120 multiplexer/demultiplexer to generate PDCPeuDUs for the SGW or other eNB. [118] The scheduler allocates transmission resources to the UE at an appropriate time taking into account the buffer state and annual state of the UE and controls the transceiver to process the signal to be transmitted to the UE and received from the UE. [119] The controller can perform the control operations on the eNB operations proposed in Figures 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9. For example, the control unit sets the cell reselection priority for the UE and if it transmits proximity communication and controls the operation of the RAR broadcast message to the UE in the RAR window. [120] While preferred embodiments of the invention have been described using specific terms, the description and drawings should be considered in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense in order to aid in understanding the present invention. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications and alterations can be made therein without departing from the spirit and broader scope of the invention.
