Abstract:
A random access method and an apparatus of a terminal for performing random access procedure to multiple base stations in parallel in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system supporting dual connectivity are provided. The method includes determining whether a first preamble transmission to a first cell of a first base station is overlapped with a second preamble transmission to a second cell of a second base station in a time domain, determining, when the first preamble transmission is overlapped with the second preamble transmission in the time domain, whether a sum of transmit powers calculated for the first and second preamble transmissions is greater than a maximum allowed transmit power of the terminal, and controlling, when the sum of the first and second preamble transmit powers is greater than the maximum allowed transmit power, the transmit power calculated for the second preamble transmission.

Claim (Index 1):
A method by a terminal communicating with a master base station and a secondary base station, the method comprising:\n identifying that a transmission of a first preamble on a primary cell of the master base station is overlapped with a transmission of a second preamble on a secondary cell of the secondary base station in a time domain and a sum of transmission powers determined for the transmissions of the first preamble and the second preamble is greater than a maximum allowed transmission power of the terminal; transmitting the first preamble on the primary cell based on the transmission power determined for the transmission of the first preamble; adjusting the transmission power determined for the transmission of the second preamble; transmitting the second preamble on the secondary cell based on the adjusted transmission power; and if no random access response is received within a predetermined period, skipping an increase of a number of transmission of the second preamble and retransmitting the second preamble at a transmission power determined based on the number of trans mission of the second preamble.
