WIRELESS COMMUNICATION TERMINAL APPARATUS AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

A wireless communication terminal apparatus and a wireless communication method wherein a measurement operation, which is suitable for a long DRX/DTX interval, is controlled without providing any new signaling between a terminal and a base station. When a DRX threshold terminal status determining part (107) determines that a set a DRX/DTX interval is longer than a DRX threshold, a measurement process deciding part (108) instructs a measurement implementing part (109) to use information for cell reselection. The measurement implementing part (109) then uses the information for cell reselection to perform a measurement. When a result of themeasurement satisfies a cell reselection requirement, a measurement report transmission process deciding part (110) decides a transmission of a measurement report, which is then transmitted from a transmitting part (111) to a wireless communication base station apparatus currently connected.
