  • Patent number: 11197316
    Abstract: Disclosed is a radio communication system in which a base station device and a terminal device communicate with each other, and the terminal device performs a random access procedure. The base station device notifies the terminal device of random access common configuration information including the number of repetitions for each level, information indicating a relationship between group information of random access preambles and the level, and the number of attempts of preamble transmission for each level. A MAC layer in the terminal device performs processing of increasing the level in a case that a first counter exceeds the number of attempts of transmission corresponding to the level.

  • Publication number: 20200413379
    Abstract: A mobile station device that receives control information having a downlink control information format and addressed by a Cell-Radio Network Temporary Identifier on a physical downlink control channel from a base station device. The mobile station device also transmits a random access preamble using a random access channel to the base station device based on receiving the control information which provides a random access order. The downlink control information format includes a first field for downlink resource assignment. In a first case that the downlink control information form at is used for the random access order, a fixed value is set to the first field, while in a second case in which the downlink control information format is used for downlink scheduling, a first value different from the fixed value is set to the first field.
