Patent ID: 8391244

Claim:
A radio communication terminal device, comprising: a receiver configured to receive first radio data signals and second radio data signals via a first frequency carrier and a second frequency carrier, respectively; a controller configured to control the receiver such that the receiver does not receive the first radio data signals via the first frequency carrier during a transmission gap; and the receiver receives the second radio data signals via the second frequency carrier during the transmission gap, wherein the controller is further configured to determine the transmission gap in accordance with control information signaled by a radio communication network device, wherein the control information comprises parameters for mobile radio signal measurements to be carried out by the radio communication terminal device; and a transmitter configured to transmit an acknowledgement message after the transmission gap, wherein the acknowledgment message acknowledges the receipt of the second radio data signals received via the second frequency carrier, and wherein the parameters for mobile radio signal measurements comprise acknowledgement priority information about the prioritization of the transmission of the acknowledgment message.
