Abstract
A mobile communication method according to the present invention includes the steps of: establishing a first radio link between the 'LTE-AS' and the eNB in response to the 'Service Request' received from the “EMM”; transmitting, from the “UMTS-AS” to the “MM/GMM”, the “reconnect request”, after the completion of the switching process from the mobile communication system of the LTE scheme to the mobile communication system of the UMTS scheme, when the “LTE-AS” detects RLF within a first predetermined period after receiving the switching command instructing performance of the switching process; and not transmitting, from the “MM/GMM” to the “UMTS-AS”, the “Service Request” responding to the “reconnect request”, when the mobile station UE has not performed a packet communication in the mobile communication system of the LTE scheme before a start of the switching process.
