Abstract:
A secondary base station ( 2 ) receives an SeNB addition request message ( 302 ) from a second master base station ( 3 ) while providing a radio terminal ( 4 ) with a secondary cell group (SCG) for DC in cooperation with a first master base station ( 1 ). If the SeNB addition request message ( 302 ) explicitly or implicitly indicates that a master base station in DC for the radio terminal ( 4 ) is to be changed from the first master base station ( 1 ) to the second master base station ( 3 ), the secondary base station ( 2 ) considers that the SeNB addition request message ( 302 ) requests modification of the SCG that has already been configured. It is thus, for example, possible to contribute to performing a procedure for changing a master base station in Dual Connectivity (DC) by using existing inter-base station interface procedures and inter-base station signaling messages.

Claim (Index 7):
The base station apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to, in response to receiving an SeNB release request message from the first master base station, replace an SCG configuration for the dual connectivity in cooperation with the first master base station with a modified SCG configuration for dual connectivity in cooperation with the second master base station.
