    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a wireless communication system. A UE receives a system information block (SIB) from a base station. The UE obtains a first time division duplex (TDD) uplink (UL)/downlink (DL) configuration from the SIB. The UE identifies DL subframes in a radio frame. The UE monitors the PDCCH transmitted from the base station on a DL subframe included in an on duration period of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle. The UE obtains information about a second TDD UL/DL configuration from the monitored PDCCH. The UE applies the second TDD UL/DL configuration to the radio frame. The DL subframe corresponds to a predetermined subframe number in the radio frame. The on duration period represents a period corresponding to a predetermined number of subframes from a subframe where the DRX cycle starts, and the on duration period is repeated periodically.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for controlling an active state in a mobile communication system. The method includes receiving, from a base station, information related to a starting position of an active state and information related to a length of a first timer; deriving the starting position of the active state based on the information related to the starting position; starting the first timer set to the length of the first timer and entering the active state at the derived starting position; extending the active state, in response to control data indicating a new transmission of user data being received on a control channel; and terminating the active state, based on a control signal indicating a termination of the active state and a second timer for extending the active state. The second timer is started while the first timer is running, and the active state is terminated by the expiration of the second timer.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting power headroom information by a terminal in a mobile communication system. The method includes receiving, by the terminal, information for an allocated uplink transmission resource; identifying whether a path loss has changed by more than a threshold, after transmitting last power headroom information, when the terminal has the allocated uplink transmission resource; in case that the path loss has changed by more than the threshold when the terminal has the allocated uplink transmission resource, determining a transmission of the power headroom information; and transmitting an uplink packet including the power headroom information based on the allocated uplink transmission resource. The power headroom information is obtained based on a difference between a maximum transmission power of the terminal and a transmission power of the terminal.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A method for communicating by a user equipment with a macro cell base station and a small cell base station in a communication system is provided. The method comprises applying a first base station security key to a first communication link with the macro cell base station; generating a second base station security key to be used for a second communication link with the small cell base station based on the first base station security key; applying the second base station security key to the second communication link with the small cell base station; and communicating through at least one of the first communication link and the second communication link.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for performing a random access by a user equipment (UE), including identifying a path loss and a size of a message that the UE will transmit after a transmission of a preamble, selecting a preamble set from at least two preamble sets based on a first threshold and a second threshold, wherein a first preamble set is selected if the path loss is less than the first threshold and the size of the message is greater than the second threshold, wherein a second preamble set is selected if the path loss is greater than or equal to the first threshold, or the size of the message is less than or equal to the second threshold, selecting a preamble from the selected preamble set, transmitting, to a base station, the selected preamble, receiving, from the base station, a random access response message including resource allocation information in response to the transmission of the selected preamble, and transmitting, to the base station, a radio resource control message based on the resource allocation information.

    Abstract: A method for performing communication by a first communication device in a mobile communication system is provided. The method includes determining whether the first communication device is proximate to a nearby second communication device through a short-range communication link, enabling one of a first long-range communication link with a network or the short-range communication link with the second communication device based on the determination as to whether the first communication device is proximate to the second communication device, and receiving data from the network through the enabled one of the first long-range communication link with the network or the short-range communication link.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting a status report by a receiving device including an automatic repeat request (ARQ) entity and a hybrid ARQ (HARQ) processor, in a mobile communication system. The method includes receiving, by the ARQ entity, a packet from a transmitting device through the HARQ processor; determining, by the ARQ entity, whether a status report is triggered based on at least one triggering condition; generating, by the ARQ entity, the status report including a reception status of the received packet at a transmission opportunity indicated by the HARQ processor, in response to the status report being triggered; and transmitting, by the HARQ processor, to the transmitting device, a packet including the status report.

    Abstract: A bearer reconfiguration method performed by a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting a multi-bearer is provided. The bearer reconfiguration method includes, if the UE performs a bearer reconfiguration from a single bearer to the multi-bearer, reordering Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) Protocol Data Units (PDUs) received through the multi-bearer, using a timer after a completion of the bearer reconfiguration, and processing the reordered PDCP PDUs into at least one PDCP Service Data Unit (SDU). The method may also include, if the UE performs bearer reconfiguration from the multi-bearer to the single bearer, reordering PDCP PDUs received through the multi-bearer, using a timer until a predetermined condition is satisfied, and processing the reordered PDCP PDUs into at least one PDCP SDU.
