A communication system includes a terminal apparatus and a base station apparatus. The terminal apparatus communicates with a base station apparatus by carrier aggregation using a plurality of serving cells, where each of the plurality of serving cells has a different frequency. In addition, the terminal apparatus removes a measurement identity relevant to a serving cell of the plurality of serving cells based on that the serving cell was removed.

A method by a user equipment (UE) is described. The method includes receiving by the RRC entity of the UE, a PUCCH release request from a lower layer of the UE, and applying the default physical channel configuration for a scheduling request configuration for a concerned secondary cell, upon receiving the PUCCH release request from the lower layers of the UE. The PUCCH release request is notified by a Medium Access Control (MAC) entity of the UE in a case that a time alignment timer expires, the time alignment timer is associated with a secondary timing advance group (sTAG) and the concerned secondary cell belongs to the sTAG.

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.

The terminal device is provided with a first sublayer and a second sublayer that is a lower sublayer than the first sublayer. The first sublayer creates an RRC message corresponding to an RRC procedure and starts a timer relating to the RRC procedure on the basis of coverage level information. The second sublayer executes a random access procedure relating to the RRC procedure on a serving cell, determines the coverage level information in the random access procedure, and selects a random access preamble group on the basis of the determined coverage level information.
