Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing measurements on a bit-rate provided to scheduled data having a guaranteed bit-rate and being transmitted on at least one dedicated uplink data channel by at least user equipment via a C-RNC. Further, the invention also relates to a method for initiating congestion control for scheduled data of at least one guaranteed bit-rate priority class in a mobile communication system. Moreover, the invention relates to a C-RNC as well as a serving radio network controller performing these methods. To enable the C-RNC within a mobile communication system to perform congestion control for uplink transmissions having a guaranteed bit-rate the invention suggests to provide the C-RNC with a bit-rate being provided to scheduled data of the guaranteed bit-rate priority class using common or dedicated measurement procedures. This provided bit-rate is evaluated and taken as a basis for deciding on whether congestion control for data of the priority class needs to be performed.

A cell reselection system is provided which can restrict the amount of data in the broadcast information even with an increase in the number of WLAN cells included in the cell of the mobile phone network.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for distributing control signaling for session control of a multicast or broadcast service within a mobile communication network. Furthermore the invention also provides a base station, mobile terminal and communication system to perform the proposed method. In order to reduce the number of signaling connections for the service, the invention proposes to avoid the initial distribution of session control signaling in the entire mobile communications network or service area. Rather than providing service related control signaling connections upon session start, the control signaling connections are set up in response to service requests of the mobile terminals requesting the service. According to one further aspect, the mobile terminals send the service requests based on service announcements available at the mobile terminals, i.e.

Abstract: It is possible to provide a core network device, a radio communication base station device, and a radio communication method which can improve the radio resource use efficiency of the entire network without increasing UE battery consumption. According to the devices and the method, a user quantity counting unit (163) of UPE (160) counts the number of UE which have performed a position registration in each position registration area containing a plurality of cells. A user quantity comparing unit (164) selects MCT if the counted UE quantity is not smaller than a predetermined threshold value and SCT if the counted UE quantity is smaller than the predetermined threshold value, thereby appropriately performing switching between SCT and MCT in accordance with the UE quantity. Only when the SCT is selected by the UPE (160), eNB counts the number of users in the cell managed by the local device.

Abstract: Disclosed are a radio communication base station device and a radio communication method which can reduce the interruption time of a service being received by UE while suppressing a resource consumption amount in an SFN area when the UE performs a handover from the SFN area to a non-SNF area. An MBMS reception request identification unit (127) judges an RRC message inputted from the UE (100). If an MBMS reception request is contained, an MBMS reception request is transmitted to an MBMS reception request storage unit (124). Moreover, when the RRC message from the UE (100) contains an adjacent cell reception quality measurement result, a handover decision unit (126) judges whether to perform a handover to the adjacent cell. The MBMS reception request storage unit (124) stores the MBMS reception request outputted from the MBMS reception request identification unit (127).

An M-UPE (160) which distributes MBMS data to the overlap PA stores an identifier of other M-UPE (170) connected to the overlap PA. When no participating user under the M-UPE (160) is detected upon update of the number of UPE users, the M-UPE (160) continues the multicast service to the M-UPE (170) according to the stored identifier.

Abstract: Disclosed are a radio communication terminal device for reducing a power consumption needed for releasing an RRC Connection after a position registration, a network device, a mobile communication system and a position registering method. In this position registering method, in case the RRC state of a UE is in an Idle state at ST501, the UE sets flag=1, whereas the RRC Connection is established between the UE and a UTRAN. The flag set at ST501 is sent at ST504 to the UTRAN, and the flag received by the UTRAN is stored at ST505. At ST507, an RA Update Accept received by the UTRAN is sent to the UE, and the RRC Connection is released in case the value of the flag stored at ST505 is 1. When the UE receives a DOWNLINK DIRECT TRANSFER, on the other hand, the RRC Connection is released in case the value of the flag set at ST501 is 1.

Abstract: It is possible to provide a radio communication terminal device, a radio communication base station device, and a radio communication method capable of rapidly completing a handover even during DRX/DTX. In the devices and the method, a terminal (100) transmits a quality measurement result to a base station (150) at an Active interval. Here, the terminal (100) sets the DRX/DTX interval to a short interval since performance of a handover is predicted. The base station (150) which has received the quality measurement result transmitted from the terminal (100) recognizes that the terminal has set the DRX/DTX interval to a short interval and transmits a handover instruction to the terminal (100) at the Active interval, considering the shortened DRX/DTX interval.

Abstract: There is provided a control station device capable of suppressing a traffic amount by discarding packet data to be discarded by a control station device, without transmitting the packet data from the base station device to the control station device. In this device, a buffer (102) stores upstream packet data and discards it without outputting it when a predetermined time has elapsed after the storing of the upstream packet data. According to maximum wait time information, a timer management unit (106) makes an instruction to discard the upstream packet data which is to be discarded even if transmitted to an RNC, without transmitting it to the RNC (122). An alignment buffer (112) corrects the upstream packet data order inversion and discards the upstream packet data for which the maximum wait time has elapsed. A timer management unit (113) sets the maximum wait time and instructs the alignment buffer (112) to discard the upstream packet data for which the maximum wait time has elapsed.

Abstract: Provided are a radio communication base station device, a radio communication terminal device, and a radio communication system capable of reducing the processing load of a base station and an access gateway in a cell reselection process. When desynchronization between a terminal (150) and a source base station is detected, the terminal (150) performs a narrow-region cell search for an adjacent base station connected directly to the source base station. If no adjacent base station is detected, a wide-region cell search is performed for other than the adjacent base station. A base station detected is made as a target base station and a cell update is requested. The source base station transmits terminal information to the access gateway after a timer has counted up the time required for the narrow-region cell search at the terminal.
