Abstract

A radio communication system for a radio communication service and a terminal is provided, namely, a method for communicating data blocks between a base station and the terminal in Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (E_UMTS) or Long Term Evolution (LTE) System evolved from UMTS, and more particularly, to a method of effectively identifying a transmitter of a data block received by a receiver.

Claims

1. A method of communicating data in wireless communication system, the method comprising steps of:

transmitting a random access preamble;

receiving a random access response in response to the transmitted random access preamble, wherein the random access response includes a radio resource allocation; and

transmitting a protocol data unit (PDU) using the allocated radio resource,

wherein the PDU includes a terminal identifier and logical channel ID (LCID) fields,

wherein at least one field of the PDU is used to indicate an existence of the terminal identifier,

wherein the at least one field is a particular field of the LCID fields,

wherein the LCID fields are used to identify a logical channel or a type of control information,

wherein the at least one field comprises a specific value identifying the existence of the terminal identifier, and

wherein the specific value is indicated by 5 bits.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the steps are performed when a terminal is in a connected state.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the random access preamble is randomly selected by a terminal.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the terminal identifier is a cell radio network temporary identity (C-RNTI).

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the radio resource allocation is an uplink grant.

6. A method of generating a protocol data unit (PDU) in wireless communication system, the method comprising steps of:

transmitting a random access preamble;

receiving a random access response in response to the transmitted random access preamble, wherein the random access response includes a radio resource allocation;

generating the PDU with a header,

wherein the generated PDU includes a terminal identifier,

wherein the header includes logical channel ID (LCID) fields,

wherein the LCID fields are used to identify a logical channel or used to identify a type of control information,

wherein at least one field is used to indicate an existence of the terminal identifier,

wherein the at least one field is a particular field of the LCID fields,

wherein the at least one field comprises a specific value identifying the existence of the terminal identifier, and

wherein the specific value is indicated by 5 bits; and

transmitting the generated PDU using the allocated radio resource.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein the steps are performed when a terminal is in a connected state.
