Original Abstract Submitted

A communication apparatus capable of communicating with a master base station and a secondary base station, after it is decided, in a case where a radio resource control (RRC) state of the apparatus is Inactive state, where the apparatus is disconnected in a physical layer and is connected in a logical layer, to cause the RRC state to transit from the Inactive state to Connected state, where the apparatus is connected in the physical layer and the logical layer, executes processing for connecting with the master base station and the secondary base station, and in a case where the processing for connecting with the master base station or the secondary base station fails, causes the RRC state to transit to Idle state, where the apparatus is connected in neither the physical layer nor the logical layer.
