Abstract

Provided is a communication system that can be normally and efficiently operated in the case where existing carriers and new carrier types coexist. A base station device and a communication terminal device are configured to perform communication in cells of legacy carriers LCto LCbeing existing carriers. When the base station device starts operating new carrier types NCTand NCT, the NCTand NCTare associated with legacy carriers belonging to the same frequency band. For example, the NCTis associated with the LCor the LCand is not associated with the LC. The legacy carriers LCto LCassociated with the NCTand the NCTnotify the communication terminal device of the information on the NCTand NCT. This allows the communication terminal device to communicate with the NCTand the NCT
