Abstract

A communication control method used by a base station to allocate a radio resource to a user terminal which performs different-frequency measurement includes the steps of transmitting to the base station, by the user terminal, a request indicating whether a measurement gap for different-frequency measurement is needed, when a need for data communications between the user terminal and the base station arises while the user terminal is performing discontinuous reception; and controlling, by the base station, the radio resource allocated to the user terminal based on whether the measurement gap is needed.
