1. A radio base station device, comprising:
a reception unit configured to receive a connection request from one radio terminal;
a set up unit configured to set up a datalink connection with respect to said one radio terminal;
a first allocation unit configured to allocate a first media access control identifier which is an unused media access control
identifier, to said one radio terminal that issued the connection request;
a broadcast unit configured to broadcast a correspondence between the first media access control identifier and said one radio
terminal;
a second allocation unit configured to allocate both a second media access control identifier and a datalink connection identifier
to an identifier of a multicast information that are to be received by a plurality of radio terminals, the datalink connection
identifier being used to transmit uplink information related to the multicast information;
a first transmission unit configured to transmit a correspondence information for enabling said plurality of radio terminals
to recognize a correspondence between the second media access control identifier and the identifier of the multicast information;
and
a second transmission unit configured to transmit a time-slot corresponding to the first media access control identifier with
a user information destined to said one radio terminal loaded thereon, and a time-slot corresponding to the second media access
control identifier with the multicast information loaded thereon.
