This application provides methods and apparatuses for uplink timing synchronization. The method includes: determining, based on beam information of a first beam and ephemeris information of the satellite base station, an uplink timing frame number of a first cell corresponding to the first beam; determining timing information of a first terminal device in the first cell based on the uplink timing frame number of the first cell, where the timing information is used to indicate a timing advance or a timing lag; and outputting the timing information.

A method of operating a source node of a wireless network for controlling handover of a device from the source node to a target node of the wireless network is provided. The method comprises selecting, by the source node, to handover the device from the source node to the target node at a future time on a basis of a predicted location of the device at the future time; transmitting, by the source node, a pre-configuration message to the device including a configuration for the handover of the device from the source node to the target node at the future time; and arranging, by the source node, for the device to receive a trigger instructing the device to handover from the source node to the target node at the future time.

According to an example embodiment, a method may include logging, by a user device in a wireless network, information related to a multiple-event conditional handover execution, wherein the multiple-event conditional handover execution is based on a joint evaluation of multiple events by the user device; and sending, by the user device, a report including at least a portion of the information.

The present disclosure relates to handling a master cell group (MCG) failure in wireless communications. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system comprises: receiving, from a source primary cell (PCell), a conditional mobility command including a mobility condition for a target PCell; starting a timer for a master cell group (MCG) failure recovery and transmitting MCG failure information related to the MCG failure recovery to a primary secondary cell (PSCell), based on detecting a radio link failure (RLF) on the source PCell; and based on that the mobility condition for the target PCell is satisfied while the timer is running: transmitting, to the PSCell, a new PCell indication informing a mobility from the source PCell to the target PCell; and performing a random access to the target PCell for the mobility.

A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for handling a Conditional Handover (CHO) from a first cell to a second cell in a wireless communications network. The UE is served by a Master Node (MN), in the first cell and by a Secondary Node (SN) in a third cell. The UE receives a CHO configuration from the first network node acting as the MN. The CHO configuration includes an indication to release configurations of any one or more out of: Multi Radio Access Technology Dual Connectivity (MR-DC), and SN terminated bearers. Upon execution of the CHO according to the CHO configuration, the UE releases the MR-DC configuration and/or a configuration for SN terminated bearers.

Embodiments of the present application relate to methods and apparatuses for a mobility robustness optimization (MRO) mechanism of an inter-radio access technology (RAT) handover procedure. According to an embodiment of the present application, a method can include: receiving a mobility command message from a source new radio (NR) cell, wherein the mobility command message includes an identifier (ID) of a target cell, and the target cell is at least one of an evolved universal terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) cell and an universal terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN) cell; determining whether a timer for initiating failure recovery based on triggering a measurement report (e.g., timer T312) is running; and in response to the timer being running, stopping the timer. Furthermore, radio link failure report (RLF) information is transmitted to a network in response to the failure of Inter-RAT handover from NR to E-UTRAN and UTRAN.

This disclosure provides a satellite beam offset processing method, a device and a medium. The method includes: a network side device indicating a satellite beam offset parameter to a terminal via a broadcast message and/or a dedicated signalling; the terminal receiving the satellite beam offset parameter indicated by the network side device via the broadcast message and/or the dedicated signalling; and the terminal adjusting a communication process of the terminal according to the satellite beam offset parameter.

A communication management system (such as hardware and/or executed software) receives performance information indicating wireless connectivity performance between a communication device and a set of candidate wireless access points. The communication device is initially in communication with a first wireless access point over a wireless link. Based on the performance information, the communication management system selects a candidate wireless access point from the set in which to performance a handoff. The communication management hardware the notifies the communication device to handoff the wireless link from the first wireless access point to the selected candidate wireless access point.

Systems and methods for enabling a handover decision are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising configuring a UE with a first offset and a second offset, the second offset greater than the first offset; instructing the UE to enter a handover decision state upon receiving a first measurement report from a UE indicating that a neighbor cell has a better received signal strength than the serving cell by the first offset; instructing the UE to send periodic measurement reports with signal strength of the serving cell and the neighbor cell; delaying handover decision by remaining in the handover decision state until receiving a second measurement report from the UE; and instructing the UE to hand over to the neighbor cell when the neighbor cell has a better received signal strength than the serving cell than the second offset.

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.
