The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving data using a plurality of carriers in a mobile communication system. The communication method by a terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of: receiving a secondary cell (SCell) adding command including setting information on an SCell to be added from a primary serving cell (PCell); transmitting a preamble to the SCell to be added; receiving a random access response message (RAR) for the SCell to be added; and, if the SCell adding command includes an indicator indicating that a first base station to which the SCell to be added belongs and a base station to which the PCell belongs are different from each other, applying parameters included in the RAR to the SCell that transmits the RAR. According to the embodiment of the present invention, by aggregating carriers between different base stations, a terminal can have increased chances of transmitting and receiving data at high speed through the carrier aggregation.

It is inter alia disclosed to obtain or generate detection data. The detection data comprises position data that is indicative of a position of a terminal and one or more identifiers respectively related to one or more coverage areas detected by the terminal. A negative hit for at least a region of a coverage area representation associated with a coverage area is detected, if at least all of the following conditions (i)-(iii) hold: (i) a class of the coverage area matches at least one class of one or more coverage areas for which respective identifiers are comprised or at least expected to be comprised in the detection data, (ii) the position of the terminal is within the region, and (iii) the detection data does not comprise an identifier related to the coverage area associated with the coverage area representation. At least information on the detected negative hit is used and/or provided for deciding if the region of the coverage area representation shall remain part of the coverage area representation or shall be removed from the coverage area representation, and/or for deciding whether a frequency of generating detection data shall be increased.
