Abstract

A base station (BS) for a mobile communication system is provided. As for a user equipment (UE), the BS is a primary BS and connects to a secondary BS. The primary BS calculates the time synchronization error between the primary BS and the UE, and the time synchronization error between the secondary BS and the UE. These time synchronization errors are associated with the subcarrier spacings (SCSs) of the primary and secondary BSs, respectively. According to the calculated time synchronization errors, the primary BS transmits a synchronization indication message to instruct the UE to receive the reference time information of one of the primary and secondary BSs.
