The present disclosure relates to a mobility handling in wireless communications. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a wireless device comprises: identifying a first cell which satisfies a mobility condition for the first cell included in a conditional mobility command of the first cell; and based on a determination that a target cell configuration for the first cell is unavailable, transmitting a report comprising information for an unavailability of the target cell configuration for the first cell.

A network-adaptive function control method is provided for a dual-mode mobile terminal. The network-adaptive function control method for a dual-mode mobile terminal supports communication via first and second-type networks includes registering at least one function as a network-adaptive; determining, when a function is requested to be activated, whether the requested function is the network-adaptive function. If it is determined that the requested function is the network-adaptive function, it if determined whether the mobile terminal is in the first-type network; and activating, if the mobile terminal is in the first-type network, the requested function in association with the first-type network. The network-adaptive function control method of the present invention allows registering portable IP network-friendly functions that are served only in a portable IP network domain but not in the cellular network domain, thereby restricting handover to the costly cellular network, resulting in reduction of communication cost.

This application provides a base station switching method and an apparatus. The method includes: A terminal sends one piece of binding signaling that carries SIM card binding information to a source base station; the terminal switches a plurality of SIM cards from being connected to the source base station to being connected to the target base station; and the terminal sends radio resource control reconfiguration complete information to the target base station, where the radio resource control reconfiguration complete information includes information about the plurality of SIM cards that complete the switching operation.

The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for handling mobility information in a communications network. The UE predicts the mobility information. The UE reports the predicted mobility information to a first network node currently serving the UE in the communications network.

In a control apparatus, a relative value calculation unit calculates a first relative value of a second communication quality parameter value acquired by an acquisition unit relative to a first communication quality parameter value acquired by the acquisition unit. The first communication quality parameter value is a communication quality parameter value for an in-use channel, and the second communication quality parameter value is a communication quality parameter value for a standby channel. Further, a channel switching control unit determines whether or not a radio channel set as the standby channel should be switched from the standby channel to the in-use channel based on a comparison result obtained by comparing the first relative value calculated by the relative value calculation unit and a first threshold.

A wireless UE wirelessly attaches to a network controller over a source RAN. The UE transfers UE capabilities that comprise a Public Land Mobile Network Identifier (PLMN ID) and transfers a slice request for a network slice type to the network controller over the source RAN. The network controller selects a network slice based on the requested network slice type. The network controller selects a mobility profile that comprises handover criteria based on the requested slice type and the PLMN ID. The UE exchanges user data with a user plane over the selected network slice. The UE determines a handover requirement based on the handover criteria and identifies a set of target RANs. The UE selects one of the target RANs based on the handover criteria and hands over to the target RAN. The UE exchanges additional user data with user plane over the network slice and the target RAN.
