Abstract
Provided is technology relating to: a terminal device, a base station device, a communication system, a communication method, and an integrated circuit capable of efficiently performing a radio resource control procedure. 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.
