TERMINAL APPARATUS

摘要

A terminal uses different access methods between when the terminal transmits a signal to a pico base station and when the terminal uses a macro base station as a receiving station without increasing the amount of control information to be transmitted from the base station to the terminal. A terminal apparatus of the present invention communicates with a macro base station that forms a first cell or a pico base station that forms a second cell smaller than the first cell. Upon reception of an instruction to communicate with the pico base station from the macro base station (S5), the terminal apparatus communicates with the pico base station using a second access method different from the access method used in the communication with the macro base station (S10).

主权项

1. A terminal apparatus communicating with a macro base station that forms a first cell or a pico base station that forms a second cell,
wherein the terminal apparatus uses different access methods for transmission of a data signal between when an instruction to transmit the data signal to the macro base station is received from the macro base station and when an instruction to transmit the data to the pico base station is received from the macro base station.
