Claim:
1. An information processing apparatus in a wireless communication network, comprising: circuitry configured to control communication with a base station via a communication channel formed by aggregating a plurality of component carriers; and control a handover from a first base station to a second base station, wherein, the circuitry is further configured to skip a random access procedure, to the second base station, on at least one of two or more component carriers, and, adjust transmission timing on a component carrier on which the random access procedure has been skipped by using timing adjustment information notified for a component carrier of the two or more component carriers on which the random access procedure is carried out, the timing adjustment information being notified during and as part of the random access procedure, and wherein, the circuitry is further configured to measure a channel status for each of the component carriers for a handover.
