<p>A method requesting a reconfiguration of a radio interface between user equipment and at least one base station, a method of receiving a request to reconfigure a radio interface between user equipment and a base station, user equipment, a base station and computer program products are disclosed. The method of requesting a reconfiguration of a radio interface between user equipment and at least one base station in a multi-carrier wireless communications system comprising the steps of: determining the reconfiguration to be made by at least one base station; encoding an indication of the reconfiguration together with an indicator in a reconfiguration request message, the indicator indicating a response required by at least one recipient base station on receipt of the reconfiguration request message; and transmitting the reconfiguration request message from the user equipment. This provides a flexible mechanism which enables additional information to be provided on the reconfiguration required. This message can be decoded by all base stations within range of the user equipment, but the indicator indicates which base stations need to respond to the message.</p> |
