Abstract:
A radio terminal (1) receives from a base station (2) a first value (601) of a first radio resource configuration information element. The first value (601) is associated with normal coverage or with a first coverage enhancement level. The radio terminal (1) derives a second value (604) of the first radio resource configuration information element by converting (603) the first value (601) using a value of a conversion factor (602). The second value (604) is associated with a second coverage enhancement level. It is thus, for example, possible to contribute to reduction of data size necessary for the base station to notify the radio terminal of a plurality of radio resource configurations for a plurality of coverage enhancement levels.
