METHOD, SYSTEM AND DEVICE FOR UPLINK SYNCHRONIZATION
First Claim
1. An uplink synchronization method in a multi-carrier system, comprising:
- selecting, by an eNodeB, one or more first component carriers which have not acquired uplink synchronization with the eNodeB from a plurality of component carriers supported by a user equipment;
acquiring, by the eNodeB, a Timing Advance, TA, of the first component carrier; and
transmitting, by the eNodeB, the TA of the first component carrier to the user equipment to instruct the user equipment to perform uplink transmission over the first component carrier according to the TA.

Abstract
A method for uplink synchronization in a multi-carrier system includes the following steps: a base station selects one or more first component carriers, which do not establish the uplink synchronization with the base station, from multiple component carriers supported by a terminal; then the base station obtains Timing Advance (TA) needed by the terminal to perform the uplink transmission on the first component carriers, and sends the TA information to the terminal; the terminal performs the uplink transmission on said first component carriers according to said TA. The application of the present invention enables the establishment of uplink synchronization between the base station and the user equipment in multi-carrier system.

23. A user equipment, comprising:
-
a command receiving unit configured to receive a TA of one or more first component carriers transmitted from an eNodeB, wherein the first component carrier is such a component carrier among a plurality of component carriers supported by the user equipment that has no uplink synchronization established with the eNodeB; and an uplink transmitting unit configured to perform uplink transmission over the first component carrier according to the TA. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
