UE FALLBACK FROM DUAL-ACTIVE PROTOCOL STACK TO CONDITIONAL HANDOVER

A method and apparatus may include receiving, by a user equipment from a source cell, a first configuration configured for conditional handover and dual active protocol stack handover with a reduced target cell configuration, and a second configuration configured for conditional handover only. The method may further include determining, by the user equipment, the availability of at least one radio link associated with the source cell. The method may further include performing, by the user equipment, a conditional handover procedure according to at least one of the received configurations based upon the determination.

Handling of Buffered Traffic during Inter-CU Migration of an Integrated Access Backhaul (IAB) Node
20230232294 · 2023-07-20 ·

Embodiments include methods for an integrated access backhaul (IAB) node in a wireless network to migrate from a first centralized unit (CU) to a second CU. Such methods include receiving a handover command from the first CU via a source parent IAB node. The handover command includes an identifier of a target cell for the handover. Such methods include determining that the handover command is for an inter-CU migration of the IAB node to the second CU and, based on determining that the handover command is for an inter-CU migration, performing modified handling of uplink and/or downlink data buffered at the IAB node until execution of the handover command. Embodiments also include complementary methods for handling migration of a child IAB node from a first CU to a second CU, as well as IAB nodes configured to perform such methods. FIG. 17 is selected for publication.

MOTION-BASED BEAM MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
20230232257 · 2023-07-20 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for a user equipment (UE) to detect motion of the UE based on a motion sensor, such as an inertial measurement unit (IMU). The UE, based on the detected motion, may trigger a measurement procedure in which measurements of different beams or cells are performed at a greater periodicity than if the motion were not detected. The indication from the motion sensor may indicate that UE acceleration, rotation, orientation, or any combinations thereof, exceeds a threshold and results in the UE switching to a fastest available measurement periodicity. After triggering the fastest available measurement periodicity, the UE may adjust the measurement periodicity based on newly obtained beam measurements and converge to a measurement periodicity based on observed metrics.
