(57) A mobile station which configures a plurality of component carriers to communicate
with a base station includes a transmission unit configured to transmit to the base
station a terminal capability associated with non-gap measurement indicating whether
the mobile station is capable of performing inter-frequency measurement using a radio
frequency (RF) chain which is not used for a component carrier; a reception unit configured
to receive whether to allow the non-gap measurement from the base station; and a communication
